Automobiles have been around for a long time now with new designs and concepts coming out every year. I remember how when I was in school, I would see pictures in books of cars that have to be winded up to start. Even back then cars would run on some sort of petroleum and I’m pretty sure before petroleum, cars were running on other types of matter. Reality now shows that a huge percentage of the population in the whole world have some type of automobile transportation that is owned. I’m not talking about public transportation like buses, but rather the cars and motorcycles that you see on the streets and freeways. The reason why a huge population owns a type of transportation is because going to work isn’t just a stroll to the park anymore, but more of a 10-20 mile or more walk. I know there are some crazy people out there that loves to walk far to work to save on some money and the Earth, but most are just commuting through all the traffic. No matter how much gas costs and no matter how much it is hurting the Earth, driving an automobile is just a need in most families these days.

Education is a very important thing in our society and although I’m Chinese, I admit that a lot of this problem is caused by Chinese people being so smart. I remember when I was in 8th grade, I started seeing immigrants from China coming to America to become a citizen. I don’t mention Hong Kong because immigrants from Hong Kong usually move to Canada. As it reached my Sophomore of high school, immigrants from China grew a huge percentage and I remember hearing that schools were starting to deny new students from out of the country. Anyways, back to my point here. So Chinese people are suppose to be very smart because of the higher and faster education in China, so what happens is that the levels of education raise higher than ever and acceptances in higher colleges become more difficult. Before you say I’m assuming things, stop yourself because these are facts

The issue of global warming has plagued the minds of the educated world since it first became known. However, because of the doubt that many people have about its very existence and the uncertainty that the popular media has promoted by capitalizing on this doubt, the problem has not been properly addressed. Although all scientific evidence points towards the fact that global warming is the lead cause of a potentially destructive climate shift the likes of which has never been seen before, much of the media tends to display opposing perspectives in hopes of getting the attention of – and, in the process, selling their products and services to – the populace.

We all live in different places in the world on the planet we call, Earth. Earth has been around for many many years, but it wasn’t until recently that scientists are realizing that things need to be done to stabilize our planet. If you haven’t noticed, weather is changing and in some places like where I live (California), it is getting hot during the seasons where we’re suppose to get rain or wind. Some of you lucky folks are getting snow, but way too much snow during this time of the year. We’re the ones that are impacting the world causing these climate changes and the future of our planet is just inevitable if nothing is done to stop this mayhem.

Background - ZenHabits’ About Page

Achieving goals, productivity, being organized, GTD (Getting Things Done), motivation, eliminating debt, saving, getting a flat stomach, eating healthy, simplifying, living frugal, parenting, happiness, and successfully implementing good habits begins with Zen Habits. Leo Babauta is the man behind the success of this huge blog. Some of you readers might think he is a doctor, coach, or a consultant that have answers to everything, but he is just a father of six kids, a husband, and freelance writer that created Zen Habits for setting and achieving goals of others or his own.

Consisting of Zen habits in Leo’s life, he was able to achieve many of his own goals listed below:

• Quit smoking
• Became a runner
• Ran a marathon
• Began waking early
• Became organized
• Began eating healthy
• Became a vegan
• Doubled income
• Wrote a novel
• Took control of finances
• Began eliminating debt
• Began saving an emergency fund
• Simplified life
• Lost weight
• Began training for a triathlon
• Began commuting to work by bike
• Began the habit of clean-as-you-go
• Read more about Leo’s achieved goals

That sounds like a lot, and looking back on it, it is. But I didn’t tackle it all at once, and by building on and learning from each previous success, I was able to achieve each new challenge I set before myself. And I had a blast doing it (and still do).

Provides

ZenHabits.net provides the tips that many of us seek, but if we were to commit to the goals, we must also follow Leo’s techniques. With 2-3 posts a week, Leo is really hitting it big time with over 20,000 unique visitors a day reading his tips and help on providing zen. I decided to give ZenHabits a try and I started reading one of his posts, A Simple Method To Avoid Being Judgmental, and he is absolutely correct about how we view strangers on their cover and not what is inside. His great steps surely made me realize that I am absolutely a judgmental person because I like to talk shi* about others and the way they look. Leo’s posts are such a huge help towards my life and surely would work for any other person. With each post he makes, he describes what needs to be changed in order to receive perfect zen. For example to the post I read, Leo points out that a person needs to be concerned with the following points:

• Don’t pass judgment
• Understand
• Accept
• Love

Everything is described in so much detail that any person can reach their full potential after reading the 2-3 posts a week.

A forum is also an addition that ZenHabits provide, where subscribers start conversations with each other discussing certain habits and what can be done. In addition to that, the forum is the place for the monthly Zen Habits Challenges, where any member may choose a habit and report daily on the productivity.

Inspiration

Leo is not the man he used to be now that he follows by what he says. He creates new habits when he feels that something needs to be changed. Usually when a person wants to do something new, it is only committed for about a week or so. Leo inspires many of us by the great feats he has accomplished and is still accomplishing because he feels he is just not there yet. It is difficult for a person to come forward blogging about their own life, but ZenHabits is available for everyone to receive tips and help to succeed.

The first habit we must commit to now is making ZenHabits.net our daily habit.

Update: I’m sure you guys already know that Darren has already beaten me to a review of ZenHabits and his new eBook. Darn that ProBlogger , but hopefully this review will bring some extra kick to some of you readers.
