Hi Brian, This is a very thought provoking post. Way love the idea of Ikigai . Writing does it for me and working on the confidence and skills necessary to feel like I can contribute. Thank you for sharing your insights on purpose.

Thanks for the feedback, Tina. I like your inclusion of the importance of self confidence in the Ikigai approach. I agree that this is a necessary precondition for moving forward on a path of purpose, but I suppose a tool like Ikigai could also help us build self-confidence: "You know, there is a need in the world for what I'm doing, and I do love doing it, so, hey, maybe it's time to claim my purpose!"
