Simplify your life with Zen basics

Drue Kataoka, an artist, musician and creator of the blog ValleyZen.com, helps simplify your life with the principles of Zen.

1. SIMPLIFY
   Focus on what's important. Eliminate what's not.
2. IMMEDIACY
   React to the moment -- not to your fears and concerns.
3. BREAK YOUR RHYTHM
   Surprise yourself and those around you.
4. BE CALM
   Find Tranquility in Action.
5. GREEN FROM THE INSIDE OUT
   Begin with your own personal ecosystem.
