Ikigai (生き甲斐), a Japanese concept, refers to the reason for being, or the reason for living. It is the intersection between what we love, what we are good at, what the world needs, and what we can be paid for. In short, it is finding a purpose in life that gives us meaning and motivation.
The word "ikigai" is formed by "iki" (生き), which means "life", and "gai" (甲斐), which means "value" or "merit". Thus, ikigai can be translated as "the value of life" or "the reason to live". 0 reply
