 IKIGAI WORKSHEET
What did you realize after completing the diagram? (Answer this in at least 3-5 sentences)
-I realized that IKIGAI is very important because it can help you live a longer and healthier
life. It establishes a synergy between passion, vocation, profession and mission. For me,
knowing your IKIGAI also increases likelihood of you taking better care of your health
because your life has meaning.

Below are some questions that could help you figure out what to include in the diagram:
What You Love
 Is what you’re doing something you’re truly passionate about? Could you
enthusiastically talk about you are doing for hours on end?
 Are you emotionally connected to the result of your work? Do you think that you could
out-care other people in your field?
 If you weren’t concerned about money, would you still do what you’re doing?
What the World Needs
 Are you helping to solve an actual problem?
 Is the marketplace demanding what you have to offer? Are people willing to part with
their resources (money, time, attention, trust, loyalty, love, etc.) to buy what you’re
selling?
 Will this work still be needed 10 years from now? How about 100 years from now? If not,
will the value of your work today increase over time?
What You Can Be Paid For
 Can you be paid for what you plan to do? Are other people being paid for this work?
 Can you make a good living doing what it is that you want to do? Can you eventually
make a good living doing this work?
 Is there a healthy amount of competition in that industry? Are there other people who
can do what you do, but better?
What Are You Good At
 Are you useful? Is what you do something that your friends/family/community have
sought your advice/opinion on before?
 Are you among the best in what you can do? How about in your class? In the school?
 With some more education and experience, could you master what you do?
