Elderly care


Question # 1 What is your purpose?


People, who live in Okinawa, Japan, have the world's longest life expectancy and the world's longest health expectancy. How do they do it? Answer: They don’t have a word for retirement. Instead, they have the word ikigai, which means the reason you get up in the morning. We don’t want to retire and do nothing. We just want to do something we love. https://hbr.org/2016/04/why-retirement-is-a-flawed-concept
