What is an Ikigai Worksheet?
The Japanese Secret
Ikigai (ηγη²ζ) is a Japanese concept meaning "reason for being." It sits at the intersection of what you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for.
How to Use This Worksheet
Add at least 3β5 items to each circle. The more honest and specific you are, the more powerful your Ikigai discovery will be. There are no right or wrong answers.
The 4 Intersections
Passion = Love + Good At. Mission = Love + World Needs. Vocation = Paid For + World Needs. Profession = Good At + Paid For. Ikigai lives at the center.
