Suraj Shah works with curious, tender-hearted leaders – particularly those who have experienced a significant loss – who are on a quest for greater calm, clarity and joy in their life.

He’s based in London (UK) and enjoys immersing in deep conversations over a decent coffee, with jazz playing in the background.

Highlights:

Going from Purpose to Impact: Once you have some clarity on your purpose, it’s time to put it into action and start creating the impact you want on the world. You’ll learn how to actually start to make your purpose a reality.
The Fearless Method & How to Practice with Patterns: You’ll get clear on your patterns of avoidance, procrastination, perfectionism and more that are getting in the way of doing your meaningful work and making your impact. Then you’ll learn how to work with these patterns to start to shift them, using the Fearless Method of training your mind.
How Limiting Beliefs Limit our Impact: You’ll learn how some of your beliefs can cause you to limit yourself from taking courageous action. The things we do that we want to change are caused by these beliefs, and bringing awareness to them allows us to create new empowering beliefs, and deepen our impact on the world.
Cultivating Commitment & Structure: You’ll create the commitment and structure that will help you create the meaningful impact you want to make in the world. This will deepen your training and give you the space to do the work you’ve been longing to do.
Deep Focus in the Face of Resistance: Learn how to turn towards your resistance to your meaningful work, and open to finding focus in the middle of your uncertainty. This is a training that will expand your capacity to do the important work, even when fear or patterns arise.
Additional Mindfulness practices, meditations, and worksheets will be available to members who would like to continue to deepen into the training.

Why Does Creating Meaningful Change in Our Lives Feel like Such a Battle?

The best of intentions often flops around without some kind of structure.

We start with great intentions, but the harder ventures cause us to flounder around.

Then we repeat that:

Start with good intentions, flounder around. Over and over again, until we feel hopeless to change anything or start to nourish a deep sense of inadequacy.

Many of us have things we’d like to change: our exercise and diet habits, procrastination and productivity habits, patience and mindfulness habits, quitting bad habits, decluttering and finances, reading and learning and doing all the things we want to do in life.

But very often we fall short of our hopes.

What’s the problem? Why do we struggle with these changes?

There are lots of reasons, some of them external … but the main reason that it’s difficult to stick to these changes is actually internal.

The result?

Distractions, running away when things feel hard, self-criticism, harshness, and stories about “not being able to do this” slowly eat away at our capacity to hold a higher vision for ourselves.

Nobody feels good taking these actions, but it’s a natural reaction to one simple truth.

What is that truth?

The Fearless Living Academy

The 5 most damaging myths about finding your purpose:

This is the belief that before you can start taking action, that you need to know exactly what your purpose is. It’s that feeling that there’s always something more you need to know, learn, think about, or plan for.

In reality: the clarity you desire comes from action.

Lack of action often results from a fear of “getting it wrong”, and messing something up, or being perceived as “not knowing what you are doing”.

Are You Ready to Join Us in Fearless Living?

We get in our own way by trying to get away from feelings of uncertainty.

You might find yourself caught up in distractions, consumption, busywork and old habits …

Or perhaps feeling like you are caught in a “groundhog day” loop where nothing quite excites you anymore, and you wish you could ignite your fullest expression and purpose for why you are here on this planet.

Or maybe you know what you are being called forward to create in the world, and yet you lack the focus and discipline to create the impact you desire … it all feels just out of reach.

In all three cases, there’s a “future you” just waiting to answer the call of fearless living where you’ll courageously move through uncertainty, shift your habits, deepen your purpose, and create the impact you long to have in the world.

This is the belief that you still require more preparation, more practice, and more planning before you can take the next step.

The accompanying thought often shows up as some version of I’ll be ready when …

… I get this degree

… take that course

… read these books

… find the perfect mentor

The reality: The feeling of readiness will never come

If not now, when?

You fear the failure of taking action before you are truly ready, and that you’ll fail when you “get it wrong”.

I NEED TO BE READY

This is the belief that you are too busy, at capacity, overwhelmed, and can’t possibly take something new on.

Or it could also be a thought that you don’t trust yourself to follow through with the responsibility of adding something else to your plate.

The reality: We all have the same amount of time, and therefore it’s truly a matter of priority and commitment.

You fear that if you commit the time to a new endeavor, that you won’t actually succeed, so why even try?

I DON’T HAVE THE TIME

This is the belief that you can’t afford to get support, whether it be from a course, a coach, or a mastermind, or some other avenue.

You feel that it would be irresponsible.

The reality: Anything is possible once we step outside of this fear.

You fear that if you commit to something new that has the possibility of being life-changing, that you’ll go deep into debt and let others down.

I DON’T HAVE THE MONEY

This is the belief that what you care about greatly is insignificant in the grand scheme of things. That while other people have huge, important purposes – that yours is not big enough to really take seriously.

It’s the thought that you just aren’t that important.

“That is something that someone else does, not me”

The reality: If you let yourself be seen by others, those who can support you and become your greatest allies along the path will see possibility in you, and won’t be looking at your supposed “shortcomings”.

You fear that if you let yourself be seen fully, you’ll be judged for your inadequacies.

MY PURPOSE IS TOO SMALL

“Let the beauty of what you love be what you do.” – Rumi

It’s time to live a fearless life rather than allowing yourself to fall victim to self-criticism, procrastination, and overwhelm.

If you feel incapable of sustaining change or being consistent in forming new positive habits …

If you would like to use your precious time and energy more deliberately and effectively, all while making a bigger positive impact …

If you want to make a difference in the world, serve others powerfully, and cultivate deep focus & commitment in the face of resistance …

Then I invite you to join…

A sneak-peak at the transformation that awaits you inside Fearless Living Academy

1. Take greater ownership over your life

You’ll no longer be defined by your past struggles and beliefs around your ability to create positive change in areas like exercise, eating, sleeping, and prioritizing self-care.

2. Build unshakeable confidence

You’ll shed the self-doubt that often comes as a byproduct of not having a strong foundation of habit fundamentals in your life.

3. Stare down huge tasks with fierce determination

You’ll create a “sacred training container,” move towards the fear, and pour yourself into your tasks with devotion. And when you are down, you’ll practice gratitude for how far you’ve come.

4. Create accountability to self & others

You will begin to hold a higher standard for yourself and the change you are committed to bringing forth in the world.

5. You’ll create breakthroughs

You’ll open yourself up to new environments & experiences that may be uncomfortable at first. You’ll begin to notice your blindspots and areas where you contract in your thinking rather than being expansive, and begin moving towards the resistance joyfully!

6. You’ll approach your days deliberately

You’ll learn to apply thoughtfulness with heightened specificity when it comes to your purpose — not because you read somewhere that it’s important … but because you deserve it. And the world will benefit greatly from experiencing the gift of you coming alive.

7. You’ll take care of yourself and experience higher levels of well-being

You’ll begin nourishing yourself physically and mentally, while simplifying your life to transform the overwhelm into something powerful … and doing all these things from a place of ease.

It came when I needed it the most, to help me evolve and overcome the anxiety and frustration I was feeling. It seems becoming a mother awakened many fears, and triggered my lifelong subtle anxiety until the point it became bold. Zen Habits gave me a mind space, a silence space and forced me to do this inner work. It was easy to feel inspired in Leo’s words

– Cristina Migotto

Zen Habits gave a voice to many of my inner concerns while I was a new mother.

The inner voice in my head is compassionate and filled with empathy (for self) and for others. I am so grateful to Leo Babuta for all that he does. Thank you. Your impact reaches far!

– Aisha Memon

I have found my own being, my own power. I have become mindful of how I approach anything in life.
