Ikigai (pronounced ee-key-guy) is a wonderful Japanese concept that essentially means “a reason for being.” It’s made from two Japanese words: iki, meaning “life” and kai, meaning “effect, result, worth or benefit.” Combined: “a reason for living.”
Isn’t that rather beautiful?

Flossing One Tooth
7 RecommendationsMuch too often, perfect becomes the enemy of good. Perfection becomes more important than making progress in the first place.
