Japanese clinical psychologist and professor Akihiro Hasegawa defines the term ikigai as that which makes you look forward to the future, even if you feel bad in the present. "Gai comes from the word kai (shells in Japanese, which were highly valuable in ancient times), and from there, ikigai evolved into a word that means 'value in life,'" he explained.
Ikigai is the purpose we set for ourselves during and for our lives. Sometimes it takes longer to find it, and sometimes less. I am fortunate enough to have already found mine.
On a professional level, my ikigai is to fight to make planet Earth a better world. As a communicator, my ikigai is to contribute to making planet Earth a better planet through communication.
I view journalism as a space to denounce, criticize, illustrate, educate, provoke thought, entertain, and teach people to cry without feeling guilt in the process.
I view communication as an element that improves human lives. A well-communicated winery enhances a social gathering, a scientific foundation improves human lives, and a well-communicated NGO improves entire societies.
Journalism, communication, creativity, and constant self-improvement are crucial elements in life and in my life. All of these together form part of my identity and, therefore, part of my ikigai.
