Pursue activities that bring you joy from "summary" of Ikigai by Héctor García,Francesc Miralles
When we engage in activities that bring us joy, we are nurturing our sense of purpose and fulfillment. These activities are not just hobbies or pastimes; they are the things that make us truly come alive. Whether it's painting, gardening, dancing, or cooking, these activities allow us to express ourselves authentically and connect with our inner selves. By pursuing activities that bring us joy, we are also tapping into our ikigai - our reason for being. When we are engaged in activities that bring us joy, we are in a state of flow where time seems to stand still and we are completely immersed in the present moment. This is where our passion and skills intersect, leading to a sense of deep satisfaction and contentment. It's important to remember that pursuing activities that bring us joy is not about seeking external validation or approval. It's about finding what truly lights us up from within and following that path wholeheartedly. This may require us to let go of societal expectations or norms and listen to our inner voice to discover what brings us joy. When we prioritize joy in our lives, we are also taking care of our mental and emotional well-being. Joy has the power to uplift our spirits, reduce stress, and increase our overall sense of happiness. It's a reminder to not take life too seriously and to make time for the things that bring us pure delight. In a world that is often focused on productivity and achievement, it can be easy to overlook the simple pleasures that bring us joy. But by making a conscious effort to prioritize activities that bring us joy, we are honoring our true selves and living a life that is aligned with our deepest desires. So let's make a commitment to seek out joy in our daily lives and make space for the activities that truly light us up from within.
