The above diagram is mentioned in Chapter 1 and is found on the back of this book. It can describe or classify every single activity we do in our daily life. We can always refer this when we are confused about certain things that we do. Through this diagram most importantly, we can find our&nbsp;‘raison d’etre’ or Ikigai. For example, Singing is what I love and what I'm good at making that my&nbsp;Passion. The founder of Beach Please, 22-year-old Malhar Kalambe, loves to clean the beaches of Mumbai and knows that this result is what the world needs making this his&nbsp;Mission.

Classifying the things we do

*Los Angeles Times bestseller* “If hygge is the art of doing nothing, ikigai is the art of doing something—and doing it with supreme focus and joy.” —New York Post Bring meaning and joy to all your days with this internationally bestselling guide to the Japanese concept of ikigai (pronounced ee-key-guy)—the happiness of always being busy—as revealed by the daily habits of the world’s longest-living people. *And from the same authors, don’t miss The Book of Ichigo Ichie—about making the most of every moment in your life.* * * * What’s your ikigai? “Only staying active will make you want to live a hundred years.” —Japanese proverb According to the Japanese, everyone has an ikigai—a reason for living. And according to the residents of the Japanese village with the world’s longest-living people, finding it is the key to a happier and longer life. Having a strong sense of ikigai—the place where passion, mission, vocation, and profession intersect—means that each day is infused with meaning. It’s the reason we get up in the morning. It’s also the reason many Japanese never really retire (in fact there’s no word in Japanese that means retire in the sense it does in English): They remain active and work at what they enjoy, because they’ve found a real purpose in life—the happiness of always being busy. In researching this book, the authors interviewed the residents of the Japanese village with the highest percentage of 100-year-olds—one of the world’s Blue Zones. Ikigai reveals the secrets to their longevity and happiness: how they eat, how they move, how they work, how they foster collaboration and community, and—their best-kept secret—how they find the ikigai that brings satisfaction to their lives. And it provides practical tools to help you discover your own ikigai. Because who doesn’t want to find happiness in every day? A PENGUIN LIFE TITLE

Ikigai

A man is made by his beliefs as he believes. So he becomes.

A man's own self is his friend. A man's own self is his foe

Curving back within myself I create again and again.” “We behold what we are, and we are what we behold

No one who does good work will ever come to a bad end, either here or in the world to come

&nbsp;We behold what we are, and we are what we behold

Hindi verse translation of the Bhagavadgītā.

If you like orange juice, have an orange instead. Even 100% pure juice loses nutrition when you process it, and it can put a lot of hidden sugar in your diet. On the other hand, actual fruits are good sources of vitamin C, potassium, fiber, and folic acid. And they’re low in fat, sodium, and calories.

Eat Fruits

Understand yourself and those around you.

The greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.

The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing.

Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people's thinking.

Life is what happens when you're busy making other plans.
