Life after work ought to feel like every day is a vacation – one you’ve earned.
That doesn’t have to mean you sit on a beach all day. That'll get boring quickly. You want to do what you love every day. To just be yourself, unencumbered.
Retirement means time to explore just being yourself and doing what you love.
Start by thinking about all the things you've always wanted to do, without worrying about practical things. Think about what you're good at, what you enjoy doing, and what's important to you. Also, think about the people in your life and if they make you happy. Surround yourself with people who make you happy and that you love being around.
Have you thought about trying new things? Spiritual pursuits like yoga and creative pursuits like painting or drawing are what truly feed the soul. Follow your interests. Pay attention to how you feel.
Does trying new things make you excited or just uncomfortable? Listen to your feelings. Listen to the voice deep inside that tells you what makes you happy and who you are.
Retirement is a chance to spend time on things that matter to you. Whether it's picking up a new hobby, spending time with friends, or taking care of yourself, retirement is all about enjoying life on your own terms.
Verve Senior Living encourages this outlook in their retirement communities. If you’re not living great days every day because you’re alone too much or you don’t feel the freedom to do what you really want to do, consider this:
- Live in a place where everyone is your age.
- Have caring staff serve you as if you are on a permanent vacation.
- Have meals and housework done for you, so you can just be yourself and do what you love.
