Zen Habit Blogs: Review

The blogs that are posted on the site zenhabits.net convey tips that are unconventional, but still lead to success. Some of these tips include the advantages of being lazy and having an unbalanced schedule. The idea that being lazy can help one to achieve goals is an uncommon philosophy considering students have been trained to perceive laziness as a poor quality. Although anti-laziness is permanently in my head, the points addressed in this blog make perfect sense. My favorite tip relates laziness to inventions. Inventions were created to make our lives as easy as possible. There was a reference to a car- humans are lazy so they drive instead of walking. The second blog was in relation to an unbalanced schedule. Focusing on one area can lead to success in that one area. With an unbalanced itinerary, there is room for other activities in one’s life. With laziness comes rest and relaxation along with the inventions that we all use every day. Without these new machines our lives would be tedious and difficult. With unbalancing comes an opportunity for people to succeed in more than just one topic. After reading these blogs, I have challenged myself to open my eyes to new ways of thinking.
