What is your reason for getting up each morning?
Recently I read about ikigai, a Japanese concept that means "a reason for being."
Finding it requires a deep and often lengthy search of self.
What you love is either a mission or a passion.
What you are good at is either a passion or a profession.
What you can be paid for is either a profession or a vocation.
What the world needs is either a vocation or a mission.
What you love & what the world needs is a mission.
What you love & what you are good at is a passion.
We all strive for ikigai, but most will not find it.
How close are you to your ikigai?
