The concept of ikigai has gained global recognition in recent times. The book ‘Ikigai: The Japanese Secret to Long and Happy Life’ by Hector Garcia and Albert Liebermann has shared to the world the Japanese philosophy about the reason for being. Inspired from this philosophy, industrialist Anand Mahindra has shared ten points of 'living a happy life.'

The Chairman of Mahindra and Mahindra shared 10 rules in a creative sketchnote by Tanmay Vora on Twitter, in which he calls the philosophy, “A good chart to see every morning before plunging into the day’s routine...”
I am not very familiar with this philosophy but you don’t need a Ph.D in the subject to see the common sense in this prescription for life. A good chart to see every morning before plunging into the day’s routine... pic.twitter.com/mTibewNSu0

The chart encourages to stay active, get in shape, smile, reconnect with nature, surround yourself with good friends, live in the moment, give thanks, don’t fill your stomach, take it slow and to follow your ikigai.
The post shared on Twitter on Wednesday, garnered over 4,000 likes and was retweeted 917 times. Many users thanked the industrialist for sharing the post.
What a share sir. Thank you! #Ikigai is translated as the reason for your being. When one does not live the life out of routine or survival, but the #purpose of one’s being is to be #happy and #cause of #happiness for #others. https://t.co/tC0H5XpNTx

This is fab! I have been thinking of summarising the Ikigai book with sketch-notes for some time.. someone just did it perfectly! Thanks for sharing. Visual note taking is a great approach even in corporate set-ups. ðÂu00c2u009fÂu00c2u0091Âu00c2u008d
