What’s Your Ikigai?

Ikigai is a Japanese word which when translated to English, literally means "a motivating force; something or someone that gives a person a sense of purpose or a reason for living".

“The purpose of life is to live it, to taste experience to the utmost, to reach out eagerly and without fear for newer and richer experience.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt

Ikigai is a Japanese word which when translated to English, literally means “a motivating force; something or someone that gives a person a sense of purpose or a reason for living”.

Have you ever cared to question the answer to this question of why most people in our society are anxious and depressed?

What is the problem?

Why do most of the population live under fear, shame, and guilt?

People don’t know what they want…

…They are anxious because of the fact that they are doing “something else” for “someone else.”

What and whom they hate…

…That’s not fair.

You must have to do the work for that you’ve been made…

God, the Beloved crafted you in her own image not to wander here and there…

…Doing tedious work for someone you don’t like…

That can’t be called a Life where you’re struggling for a few pieces of currency notes and bits of digital digits on the screen…

You must have to find a meaningful and purposeful work that you love to do and working for those who care about you and your family, not superficially but truly.

It would be best if you had to find your Ikigai.
