“Strong reasons make strong actions.”

Shakespeare

—

What is your reason why?

What’s the thing that makes you get up in the morning? The thing that makes you tick, drives you forward, and inspires you to be the best version of you? .

Ikigai

It’s a Japanese term, roughly translating to “the reason for being”.

And according to the clever girls and guys who conducted the Blue Zones studies, it’s one of the primary reasons the centenarians in Okinawa, Japan, live such long, healthy, happy lives.

But it’s not just old Asian folk who can benefit from having strong beliefs…

Everyday people like you and me can reap the rewards too, particularly if we’re looking to make positive changes to our habits or reach towards certain goals in life.

Which is probably why you’re here right?
