Description

Book I bought from Amazon = DRM removed – Please keep it to The PlaceThe word IKIGAI comes to us from Japan–land of the samurai, intensedeath-defying effort, masterful artistry, harmony with nature, and devotingyourself obsessively to a path.Ikigai’s closest meaning is *raison d’être* in French–what one livesfor, what makes your life worth living, why you inhale and exhale eachbreath.But Ikigai goes further than that, to the point where your passions andobsessions can consume you … think of the artist or inventor all-consumedby his work, the boxer who lays his body and mind on the line in everyfight, or the gardener whose mind is perfectly still among his creation.Have you found your Ikigai yet? This book is for you.In a series of essays on philosophy, history, strategy, planning, andachieving, this book is about living purposefully and with meaning.
