People ask me this all the time.
➡️ How can I find my Ikigai, my purpose?
If you ask yourself questions, you can uncover your Ikigai/purpose, even if you don't know what you are called to do today.
Starting is really as simple as that.
Remember...It's never too late to be who you were always meant to be.
Many people also ask...
What's a good starter question for the Ikigai journey?
Whether you've ever owned a dog or not, you've seen one play catch with a ball.
I had a dog that would bring me a tennis ball and drop it at my feet to throw. I'd throw the ball, and he'd bring it back, repeating this process for as long as I would be willing to throw the increasingly slobbery ball.
He never tired of doing it. He wouldn't stop to eat, he lived for chasing that tennis ball.
🌀 Here's my question for you today.
🌱 What's your tennis ball?
The metaphor of that slobbery ball endlessly fetched by a dog so beautiful drives home the lesson Ikigai is all about. One is never tired of living one’s purpose. One only falls short of number of breaths at the end, the purpose never lets one down and far outlives the life. One keeps returning to resume living that purpose in different avatars. Blessed are those who strive and discover their purpose.
