The Ikigai Journey

by Héctor García and Francesc Miralles

The authors of Ikigai take a train across Japan (Tokyo, Kyoto, Ise) and use each stop to teach a practice: kaizen, shoshin (beginner's mind), wabi-sabi, ichigo ichie. It is a travel-shaped workbook and more practical than the first book.

CLICK TO SEE

Read it if…

you liked Ikigai and want exercises.

Skip it if…

you have not read Ikigai; start there or with this; either works.

Three things you will actually use

  1. Future, past, present: three stations of purpose.
  2. Beginner's mind keeps purpose alive.
  3. Small daily improvements are the journey.

Do this first

Do the 'ikigai map' exercise in the first section.
