He gives many ways and methods through which we can find our ikigai. Our author gives many examples of people who have left the convenient way of living and chose their passion, their purpose, their ikigai. He tells us stories and teaches us meditation which can help.

“Each person prioritises ikigai as part of their day. They might not call it ikigai but they are doing what they are good at, what the world needs and what they can be rewarded for.”
