Ikigai

The search for purpose is really a search for a place, not an idea. It is a search for a location in the world where you want to be part of making things better for others in your own small way.

The best definition I have ever heard of a vocation is that it's the place where your great joy meets the world's great need.

It is the ultimate luxury to combine passion and contribution. It's also a very clear path to happiness.

Your necessary fire is not only necessary for you, it is necessary to the world itself.

One of the more powerful outbreaks of happiness and meaning in your life will occur when you pair your passion and the world's need.
