Essential Zen Habits of 2013

By Leo Babauta

What an amazing year.

For me and Zen Habits, which just finished its 7th year of existence, 2013 was a year of pure joy.

Writing for all of you is a blessing, a ton of fun, a life I love living.

Here are some of the highlights of 2013 for me and Zen Habits:

I don’t know how much Zen Habits grew in readership — usually I share my readership numbers, which grow each year, but this year I stopped tracking my numbers. Instead, I’ve been focusing on how I can best help people.

But by any measure, it was a great year. Thank you, all of you.

And 2014 will be a big year too: I’m going to write and self-publish my best book ever, titled Zen Habits.
