What Have I Done
Hi to all people of good will on this site.
Recently retired, been away for three months and now the sound of doubts are getting louder......
Have I retired too early?
What do I do now?
How do I keep my brain active.....(not crosswords, sudoko etc.), not my cup of tea...(well perhaps the occasional sip wouldn't be so bad!).
Not really a hobby person.
Love golf, tennis walking, exploring, hopping on a tram with my backpack and following my nose......
Should I volunteer my time and expertise and continue to make a contribution to my community?
Should I forget the craziness of the working life entirely and just recharge my batteries.....
Too many questions....and let's not mention the time!
So all you experienced retirees out there, having crossed the threshold, how do I have some fun and leave the worries of the world till tomorrow?
Volunteering work for not for profit organisations is my way of trying to be useful.
Doing what you feel comfortable with but leaving time to do your own thing.
Try and keep the brain active.
I think most retirees will say "how did I find time to do all this when I was working ? "
All the best,
Gerry
