Description: Ikigai is a Japanese phenomenon commonly understood as "your reason to get up in the morning."  Ikigai can be small moments: the morning air, a cup of coffee, a compliment.  It can also be deep convictions: a fulfilling job, lasting freiendships, balanced health.  Whether big or small, your ikigai is the path to success and happiness in your own life.
