The Hazy Memories of a Mid-Life Retirement

in life •  7 years ago 

I think if I retired i'd get bored. Knowing I couldn't just go travelling and enjoying myself or I'd spend all my retirement money too quickly, I'd stay at home and try to work on various projects around the house to stay busy. Steemit, writing and self exploration are great, they keep me busy and nourish the mind

@nonameslefttouse after you retired did you meaning in life change? What sorts of things got you out of bed in the morning before you retired and how did that change after retirement?

Being bored with retirement seems to be a common fear. I don't listen to group think. I was only 32 years old when I decided it was time for a break. I wasn't bored. Not one bit.

What got me out of bed was the fact I didn't NEED to get out of bed. I woke up early and quite naturally and because nothing was pressing, I'd simply start with coffee, then think about what to do next, and just do it. It's like time didn't even exist.
