IKIGAI

Ikigai is the Japanese word for " a reason for being, the thing that gets you up in the morning ".

Your day will go better if you know why you do what you do. Your day will be even better when your why is what gets you up in the morning. But when you truly know in your heart, that thing, that reason, you go to bed in anticipation of getting up in the morning.

Most people don't feel that way. They dread the alarms on their smartphones buzzing loudly to remind them to re-join the rat race for another fun filled day. The commute they loathe, the co-worker they try to avoid at all costs and the crazy boss who doesn't know what persona they are going to be today. Then it is all over and they have to retrace their steps on the commute they loathe.

If this is you . . . sorry !

However, take a closer look at that beautiful simple Japanese word " Ikigai ". You can find if you look, the thing that gets you up in the morning. I hear you, bills and mortgage to pay. Kid's education, car repayments and health insurance.

Rise above them for a second and imagine how much better your day would go with IKIGAI in your life. Go ahead dig a little deeper, find that one reason which trumps them all ....
Your personal IKIGAI
