The Japanese have a beautiful word for many of life’s processes. The process of finding your purpose or fulfilling the Man’s Soul Pillar. We as men need to have a purpose to be able to find the fulfillment we desire. The Japanese have a process to help you find your purpose.
That process is called Ikigai and it is essentially a vin diagram. Ikigai helps you examine the following
- What you love
- What the world needs
- What you are good at
- What can you be paid for
As you have each item blend and overlap with the others. You find out what your profession is and what your vocation is. Followed by your mission in life and what you are passionate about. In the middle is your ikigai or your true calling and purpose.
