What's your reason for
getting up each morning?
How did you feel this morning when you began your day? What was your reason for getting up each morning?
The Japanese have the term IKIGAI, which roughly translates into a "reason for being," encompassing joy and a sense of
purpose and meaning and a feeling of wellbeing. Iki means life and gai means realization of hopes and expectations. IKIGAI
is applicable to the small details of daily life, as well as to long-term goals and accomplishments.
So, let me ask you: Is the reason you woke up this morning a source of joy in your days? Does your motivation make you
wake up even before your alarm goes off?
Look at the images below. Observe each one of them, taking your time to find the answer to each IKIGAI element.
Element 1 . What you love to do
Lo que amas hacer
Element 2. What you are good at
En lo que eres bueno
Element 3. What the world needs
Lo que el mundo necesita
Element 4. What you get paid for
Por lo que te pagan
Bet on yourself and do what you love doing! Be dedicated and share your talent with others and you will start to see money will
follow. If you are doing things driven only by money, that may be the reason you often feel tired, lethargic and with lack of
motivation.
