This book helps you bring together all of these elements so that you can enjoy a balanced life.Our ikigai is very similar to change: it is a constant that transforms depending on which phase of life we are in. Our reason for being is not the same at 15 as it is at 70. Through three sections, this book helps you to accept and embrace that - acting as a tool to revolutionize your future by helping you to understand the past, so you can enjoy your present.Section 1: Journey Through the Future: Tokyo (a symbol of modernity and innovation)Section 2: Journey Through the Past: Kyoto (an ancient capital moored in tradition)Section 3: Journey Through the Present: Ise (an ancient shrine that is destroyed and rebuilt every twenty years)Japan has one of the longest life spans in the world, and the greatest number of centenarians - many of whom cite their strong sense of ikigai as the basis for their happiness and longevity.
