Keeping Busy After Retiring Isn't Hard

"What do you mean I should retire? If I don't work, I'll have nothing to do." Have you heard that before? Or have you said it or thought it? Relax. Retirement is what you make of it.

Retirement is not just for the old anymore. Many younger people, from 30 on up, are now retiring from the normal "rat race" and doing very well. Some begin their own business; while others, after proper financial planning, go off to do things that just plain interest them.

Sherry and I both took early retirement and have never looked back since we have more to do now than ever before. Consider that we are now replacing our carpet in our home with parquet flooring (DIY). And next week, Spring Break, we're off to Boston to visit my brother and Sherry's cousin. We're taking 2 of our grandchildren along.

We are always working on research for Focusing On Health and our other internet sub-sites. Just our newsletter takes 4 to 5 days to do it right. And, a 30+ page ebook can take a month to do. These are just a few things we do. It sure beats being a couch potato.

What we wish to pass on to you is that you should not look at retirement as a dead end. We found it to be a very rewarding time in our lives. By the way, it took us less than a week after retirement to be "deep" into all kinds interesting things to do. 5 active grandchildren also help make our life very busy. Once we get back from Boston, we're going to do a few posts on retirement. See you then.
