What is your Ikigai?
This is a question I have asked myself many times over the past few years. Selling your company has many pro’s and con’s, but what it can do is give you space to redefine yourself and your work.
In todays world it can feel like we’re not all able to profit from work we enjoy.
But all we can do is to try to arrange our lives such that most of what we do for money provides us with some kind of personal value beyond currency.
Some of us are lucky, and by way of privilege, serendipity, and hard work, have found ways to believe in this.
To believe you can design your life.
My hope is that in time, (perhaps through AI disruption), we as a people collectively learn to design our lives.
The cynic in me doesn’t believe everyone can do it. But I do believe some can.
I’ve made this Ikigai quiz to help.
