Today's retirees are creating huge shifts in the ways in which
they will live out and enjoy their lives. They are
living longer, and transitioning into their retirement years
full of energy, intellectual curiosity, a desire to give back, and
an even stronger desire to live life fully.
Living an intentional retirement takes planning. What do
you want to do with your time? Who would you like to spend
time with? What are your leisure interests? What are
you still interested in learning about? The choices go on and
on, enabled by extended longevity, healthier life styles that
allow us to continue independant living, and the financial
wherewithal to sustain the choices that we make.
There's no "one right way" to live this phase of your
life. But there are choices to make which will have a
significant impact on the quality of life you experience going
forward. Don't let life just happen to you! Be the
architect of your retirement years so you get the most out of
them. Many people don't realize that retirement is about more
than their pensions and 401ks. Of course, finances
do have a tremendous impact, but what you do
with your time is what makes retirement satisfying
and fulfilling.
Get a sense of how ready you actually are for this transition by
taking the RSP - Retirement Success Profile. This instrument
gives you feedback on 15 different success factors that influence
quality of your move into retirement. The 15 Factors are:
Current Life
Satisfaction Work
Reorientation
Attitude Toward
Retirement Directedness
Projected Life
Satisfaction Life
Meaning
Health
Perception
Leisurely Interests
Projected Financial
Security
Adaptability
Life Stage
Satisfaction
Dependents
Family and Marital
Issues
Perceptions of Age
Replacement of Work Functions
The feedback from your Retirement Success Profile assessment
gives you information on your expectations regarding each factor,
as well as how well prepared you are as of today. The
gaps become appararant, and give you insight on how to best go
about preparing those areas more fully.
Attend a "Living An Intentional Retirement" Workshop and begin
