Ikigai Thought for Today: Things that Need Doing
Questions I get asked…
How will I know if I’m ‘doing’ my Ikigai?
What do I need to understand before I can live my Ikigai?
What if I get my Ikigai wrong?
Rather than answer those directly I’ll invite you to read these thoughts from one of my favorite thinkers, Buckminster Fuller.
The things to do are: the things that need doing: that you see need to be done, and that no one else seems to see need to be done. Then you will conceive your own way of doing that which needs to be done - that no one else has told you to do or how to do it. This will bring out the real you that often gets buried inside a character that has acquired a superficial array of behaviors induced or imposed by others on the individual.
