Ikigai jointly written by Hector Garcia and Francesc Miralles.
1.- Always stay active, never retire.
He, who abandons the things he loves and knows how to do, loses the meaning of his life. That is why, even after having finished your "official" work life, it is essential to continue doing things of value, bringing beauty or usefulness to others, helping and shaping our tiny world.
2.- Take it easy.
The rush is inversely proportional to the quality of life. As a proverb says: "Walking slow gets you far." Time and energy gain new meaning when we leave the urgencies behind.
3.- Do not eat until complete.
Also, in food for long life, "less is more." According to the 80% law, to preserve health for a long time, instead of cramming, eat a little less of the hunger we have.

A courteous attitude makes friends and relaxes the person. It's okay to see what's wrong. But don't forget the privilege of being here and now in this world full of possibilities.
