Understanding Ikigai
- Ikigai is a Japanese word that means "the reason for living"
- Having an ikigai can help lower stress levels, improve health, and increase longevity
Finding Your Ikigai
- Start with four overlapping circles that represent:
- What you're good at
- What you love
- What you can be paid for
- What the world needs
- Write down ideas in each circle
- Look for the overlap between circles to find your ikigai
