How To Find And Do Work That You Love
What is Ikigai?
For centuries, philosophers have been studying structures that explain the pursuit of happiness and meaning in life. Ikigai is a combination of the Japanese words ikiru (meaning “life”) and kai (meaning “feeling of hope”). Together, these definitions create the “reason for survival” or purpose of life.
We all strive for satisfaction and goals in life. Fitness exercise is the reason you get up in the morning. It inspires your motivation to indulge and appreciate life every day.
Ikigai is a useful practice in professional development because Ikigai’s meditation will change with your own passions and needs and the needs of the world. Your ikigai practice will not necessarily end, but a continuous process.
How to find your Ikigai?
According to Japanese culture, everyone has ikigai. It is not always easy to discover our strengths. There are four questions that can help us find our way out. If you write them down and encounter them often, you can use them as a compass to bring you closer to your goal.
To find your Ikigai, you must ask yourself:
1. What do I love? (passion)
2. What am I good at? (vocation)
3. What can I be paid for? (profession)
4. What does the world need? (mission)
Ikigai is a combination of the four basic components of life: passion, profession, occupation, and mission. In other words, where; your loved one can satisfy your expertise, satisfy the price you can cherish and pay, and satisfy the needs of the world. Ikigai can achieve this goal only when the goal is to serve the community. Giving gifts makes us more satisfied than giving gifts. After determining these components, the next step is to follow the compass to start the operation. Start processing your questions and see how your answers fit the basic components of Ikigai.
