Zen Habits Lessons: 10 Powerful Things I’ve Learned This Past Decade

By Leo Babauta It’s the end of the 2010s, and it’s been quite a decade for Zen Habits. I’ve grown the blog, discarded ads, simplified to a minimalist design, wrote & published numerous books and courses, formed two programs (Sea Change and Fearless Training), and grew my mission.

Toolkit for Caregivers Book Review

Toolkit for Caregivers Book Review

I read this book because I sometimes read books totally outside of my field of interest. I like to broaden my horizons. And you never know—my parents are over 65 now. So, I didn’t read Toolkit for Caregivers to solve my immediate problems and needs. I read it as a book. And it’s a good […]

Do you ever feel that your character is too hesitant and self-censoring? Maybe you get an idea to take action or to share something, and then another voice pops in your head and talks you out of it. Perhaps you straddle the fence for a while, pondering whether it’s wiser to take action or hold…

Becoming a Person of Stature

Becoming a Person of Stature

The word stature can mean your physical height, but here I’m more interested in a second definition.

365-Day Challenges

I shared a version of this post in the Conscious Growth Club forums and on my Facebook profile yesterday. Now I think it’s time to share it with my blog readers too, along with an additional update. I’m considering a 365-day challenge for 2020 that might be a little crazy – okay, a lot crazy…

NPC to Player

NPC to Player

Yesterday I shared a blog post about the 5 major characters transformations my readers want to experience as we transition from 2019 to 2020. After extracting those original 5 transformations, I pondered whether they could be compressed a bit further. Could they be summed up as a single transformation? Each time we compress, we lose…
