経歴と著者の歩み

Leo Babauta built his public career by turning private change into a method for others. Born in Portland, Oregon, he spent most of his childhood and adult life on Guam, where he began writing professionally as a teenager and later worked in journalism and editing, including at the Pacific Daily News. He has often described his background as practical rather than credentialed, noting that he came to the work without formal qualifications and learned through years of writing, observation, and experiment. The decisive break in his story came in late 2005, when quitting smoking set off a chain of reforms: running, waking early, simplifying his finances, losing weight, and eliminating debt. Those changes gave him both material and authority. When he launched Zen Habits in 2007 while still living on Guam, he was not presenting theory from a distance; he was documenting a life being rebuilt in real time.
