Visualizing Reason of Being: IKIGAI
IKIGAI is a Japanese concept for a reason for being, or in French, une raison d'être. Also IKIGAI provides a framework for analyzing the relationships between 4 traits of life:
1.What do you love
2.What are you good at
3.What can you be paid for
4.What does the world need
If you are doing what you love (1) and what you are good at (2), you are living your passion.
If you are doing (1), (2) and (3), then you are combining your passion and profession. You are satisfied but you might feel a sense of uselessness.
If your life satisfies all four, then you have reached the state of IKIGAI, that is the ultimate reason of being.
IKIGAI has a number of visualizations done before. I for one would like to see its visualization being done in Tableau. Voila, here you go.
