  • This video explores how to align your passions, skills, and societal needs to create a life that's not only financially rewarding but also deeply satisfying.
    We start by challenging the conventional separation of what you love, what you're good at, and what pays well. The speaker shares personal experiences and insights, emphasizing the importance of considering what the world needs alongside your own desires and talents. The Ikigai model is presented as a four-circle Venn diagram, encouraging viewers to find the intersection of their passions, skills, societal contributions, and financial needs.
    The video also addresses common misconceptions about following your passion, such as the fear of financial instability. It highlights the different aspects of work life - mission, passion, profession, and vocation - and how they contribute to finding your Ikigai. The speaker's own journey towards teaching and impacting lives illustrates the transformative power of aligning your work with your Ikigai.
    Practical advice is offered on how to identify your Ikigai, including making lists of what you love, your skills, current opportunities, and world needs. The speaker encourages viewers to look beyond conventional career paths and find a unique blend that fulfills them.
    This video is a must-watch for anyone seeking direction post-graduation, contemplating a career change, or simply looking to infuse more purpose into their life. It's an invitation to redefine success and happiness by finding your unique reason for being. Don't forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more insightful content like this!

    The novelist and playwright Dorothy L Sayers wrote a terrific book called "Why Work?" in which she touches on many of the points in this video. She wrote, " if we really...arranged our work and our standard of values accordingly, we should no longer think of work as something that we hastened to get through in order to enjoy our leisure; we should look on our leisure as the period of changed rhythm that refreshed us for the delightful purpose of getting on with our work." She wrote this in 1942, so this is by no means a new problem. Thanks for explaining this so well Chris!

    Incredible insights on aligning passion with profession. For entrepreneurs, remember that while Ikigai is a powerful concept, the market fit is crucial-validate your business idea with potential customers early to ensure there's a demand for your passion-driven solution. It's about blending what you love with what others value. Good talk.

    • @andrewb5743

      Ikigai has both paid well and what the world needs. If you conceptualize it properly, that is not a strong concern.

    Dear creator of the "Ikigai Breakdown" video,
    I stumbled upon your insightful video titled "Find Your Reason - Ikigai Breakdown," and it couldn't have come at a more perfect time. My 19-year-old daughter is grappling with the challenge of choosing her path after graduation. We had a heartfelt conversation about this last night, and your video resonated deeply with our discussions.
    Your explanation of the Japanese technique, Ikigai, struck a chord. It beautifully encapsulates the essence of finding a career that aligns with passion, proficiency, financial sustainability, and societal need. I believe your video will be a guiding light for my daughter in making this crucial life decision.
    I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for sharing such valuable insights. Your video feels like a timely and divine message, providing clarity when it's needed the most. Thank you for creating content that has the power to positively impact lives.
    Warm regards,
    Ozzy Martinez

    00:00 🌟 Pursue what you love, what you're good at, and what pays well to achieve happiness, health, and wealth.
    01:55 🔄 Explore the concept of "Ikigai," the Japanese idea of finding purpose by balancing what you love, what you're good at, what the world needs, and what you get paid for.
    04:09 🌐 Differentiate between mission (love and world need, no pay), passion (love and good at, no pay), profession (good at and paid, no love), vocation (world needs and paid, no love), and job (paid but no love or skill).
    06:39 🌍 Personal example: Fulfilling one's Ikigai involves doing what you love, are good at, get paid for, and contributes to the world's needs.
    07:46 📝 Practical steps to discover your Ikigai: Make lists of what you love, what you're good at, current opportunities, and world needs; then find connections between these elements.
    08:14 🚀 Embrace the present era with technology and connectivity, providing ample tools for individuals to achieve success in alignment with their Ikigai.

    Chris, thank you for re-sharing this content. The first time you shared this it triggered a massive change in my perspective. I’ve since have expanded the model to align for someone’s second life chapter. I would to share it with you at some point. I think you are an example of how that model plays out. I was a Pro-member a few years ago and heart felt fan of yours.

    I wonder if at some point Chris is going to release all the art works like paintings or so he did since childhood and we get to see the dream of a child that never died but was kept from the world and was only showed at right time when all the things that made him keep it as a secret are no longer relevant.
    Just a food for thought😊
    I love what you do and the impact you’ve made in the world Chris.

    Well, if people are already paying you money to do whatever it is you're doing, isn't it already a sign that the world needs it? if you're earning that means you're doing something useful. And if you're earning good amount usually it also means you're good at your job. The only real question is: do you enjoy your work or is it burning you out?

    • @thefutur
      @thefutur  7 місяців тому

      by your logic, every job is what the world needs. it's meant to point at a higher purpose. like does the world need more gas burning cars? probably not. but we do need green transportation (electric cars, public transportation and better urban planning).
