Abstract

Nothing overcomes one’s reluctance about retirement more than looking forward to having a good time. That’s why thinking about what you want to do long before it’s time to let go and learning more about yourself and discovering unexplored potential passions are so important. The old adage is true: you don’t want to just retire FROM something, you want to retire TO something—something that engages you and makes it a pleasure to get up in the morning. Part of your letting-go responsibility is to find out what that something is. And, of course, it can be more than one thing.
