Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to a Long and Happy Life

It's one of the best books I’ve read in a while. I lived in Japan for three years and saw first hand how people live—so carefree and simple. In the U.S. I feel that individuals struggle so much with juggling relationships, health, and work at the same time. In Japan, it’s a way of life rather than separate entities. This book talks about finding a purpose and never quitting no matter what. It’s exactly what I needed to hear as a brand new author.

Loving this book. Multiple people in my family have read this book, Multiple times now :)

Read the epilogue 1st to decide whether you want to read it all - it lists 10 excellent life rules.Just reading this book made me feel more centred.

Fun book on Japanese culture.

This is a wonderful book to help think about maximizing your transition from work to retirement, or for anyone looking to more fully understand the importance of "purpose" in your life!

This book is all over the place. From the title, I thought they would explain how to find our Ikigai. They get into diet, yoga and what not.

I bought this book few months ago and planned to read it while visiting Japan, both experiences of exploring Japan while reading this amazing book were very inspiring and already gave me the joy, refreshment and positivity prospective ofvmy life.

Great read! Key to happiness in life. Learn to find your Ikigai. Live in the present and not worry about future.
