Ikigai sits where four things meet: what you're good at, what you love, what the world needs, and what you can be paid for. Few people find all four at once — most of us live in the spaces where only two or three overlap.
This isn't a test to pass. There's no score, and no single right list. Answer honestly, in your own words, and we'll show you where your answers meet — and where the gaps sit.
Skills, strengths, things people come to rely on you for. Not just what you were trained in — what comes naturally, too.
What holds your attention without being asked. What you'd still make time for even if nobody paid you for it.
Problems you notice and can't quite walk past. People you find yourself wanting to help. Gaps you keep circling back to.
Skills or work that others have valued enough to pay for — now, in the past, or in a form you can picture clearly.
Built from your own words — nothing added, nothing assumed.

Real ground to stand on, even before all four align.

Close to Ikigai — worth noticing what each is quietly costing you.
