Blog history
Until approximately 2010, the blog focused largely on topics such as productivity and being organized, but Babauta later drifted away from these topics. In a post titled "Toss Productivity Out", published 6 September 2011, Babauta explicitly encouraged his readers to focus on simplifying their lives rather than getting more things done.Books
On November 6, 2007, an e-book called Zen To Done: The Ultimate Simple Productivity System was published, composed of some of Zen Habits' blog posts. On January 7, 2008, the Zen Habits blog and Zen to Done e-book were released into the public domain.In December 2014, Babauta self-published a book entitled Zen Habits: Mastering the Art of Change. In December 2015, he revised and re-published a concise version of the book as Essential Zen Habits.
