There is a Iceland in Japan , called Okinawa . Which is considered as the happiest place in the world because , there people strictly apply the concept of IKIGAI - means the reason of living . And they all have found their IKIGAI for a successful living .
 We all should have our reasons of living to be happy , to live a long life , to have a good health and satisfaction . So how could we find our IKIGAI .

There are 4 major and 4 sub major interrelated steps . Which will lead you to your IKIGAI .




1 - What you love -  We all love something to do everyday , we never get tired of it . Like singing , writing , painting , cooking etc . First of all you have to determine the thing that you can do all day.

2 - What you're good at - Here you have to know the thing that you're good at. That you can do better than anyone else .

3 - From where you can earn - At the end we all need money . So find out the things you can do to earn money .

4 - What you can give to this world - Now think about it that what is the thing that you can give to the world . If you become a successful writer or a cricketer or an artist , you'll have so much thing to offer to this world.

! ) If the thing that you love to do and the thing that you're good at are same , that means that's your passion . Go for it .

!! ) If you get enough money from the thing you're good at , you got you're profession .
!!! ) If you found out the source of your earning and from which you can give this world so much , it's your vocation .

!v ) When the thing you love to do and the thing you can give to this world are same , then it'll be your mission .

Now take a pen and paper and write down the above (1-4) points and try to find that one thing that fits in all the 4 points.  You'll get your IKIGAI .

Take a moment and think , world's greatest people , Pablo Picasso , Steve Jobs , Sachin Tendulkar , everyone got their IKIGAI and their IKIGAI fits in all the 4 points .
