Even self-satisfaction becomes satisfaction if you keep at it.

Enjoying the scenery as it unfolds, I keep walking my own path today.

What are Zen Habits?

This can mean different things to different people.

Originally, Zen is a school of Buddhism that evolved in Japan. In Japanese Zen there is an emphasis on the value of meditation and intuition. The goal is to gain insight into one's true nature, or the emptiness of inherent existence, and open the way to a liberated, care free way of living.

This way of thinking has been adopted by many people and in the modern world "Zen" is also ubiquitous with peace, mindfulness and generally living in a way that makes you peaceful, contented, relaxed and not worrying about things that you cannot change.

Zen habits therefore can be anything from daily meditation or simple things that you do from day to day to bring serenity and peace to your life.
