21st Century Retirement.
RETIRE,
RE-CREATE & RESTART
| #1 |
You
are about to enter the NO RULES APPLY WORLD.
|
|
#2 |
Some
of you may go back to your original dreams.
|
|
#3 |
Be
in the present.
This is not about
ending a career, but rather it is about being in the present. In the present,
everything is about to get new again.

Grow
younger.
Yep! you heard me. How old are all
those parts of you? Yoga masters say you are as old as your spine.
But let's look at this age thing for a moment.
Your creative self - is as young as you were as a child.
Recognizing patterns - mistakes, successes- around 40-50.
Forgiving
mistakes - begins around 50.
Shedding, rethinking, doing - begins around 60.
Now aren't you a little
of all of this right now??
And how young/ old is that??

WORKING RETIREMENT
Part-time Work
 |
Choices for work after
retirement vary depending on preference or need.
|
|
FAQ's:
What are my
options for flexible work? What types of companies are most likely to offer
flexible work? Are employers even interested in hiring retirees? What are the
latest trends in Americans working in their retirement years?
|
|
The
Newest Trends:
Work in retirement years has grown popular and as the 76
million-strong Baby Boom generation advance into into retirement years, the
trend will only increase.
Employment specialists say that not only are
retirees more willing to work than in years past, but employers are more willing
to recruit and retain older workers to take advantage of the skills and work
ethic that comes with a long work history.
Bringing together these
trends has set the robust job growth seen among older workers.

LEISURE RETIREMENT
Full Time Retirement
Choice of
where to live in retirement may be your issue to consider.
|
Packing up and enjoying life
on-the-run in an RV might be your goal. (There are even ways to find small
part-time employment as you cruise across the US)
|
|
Learning something new - NEW
BEGINNINGS - Elderhostels, community colleges, or even learning a new sport
might be your consideration.
|
|
Volunteering, teaching others what you know,
consulting, entrepreneurship, and many, many more.
|
There are as
many lifestyles out there to choose from, as there are those reading this page.
HOW I CAN HELP YOU!
Career management began for me in 1987. ( Please see About
Your Coach) I particularly grew interested in lifework balance
as it effects Midlife Careers, because that is where I find myself today.
Also, visit Mary
Ann's Blog.:
|
I am combining a leisure-working
retirement into my own business of coaching midlife careers. I both coach and
sometimes wear a consulting/advising hat for my clients. |
|
I speak with first hand knowledge,
understanding the dilemmas you face, the pitfalls that keep you from reaching
your target goal. Yet at the same time, having taken some steps ahead of you, I
understand the true joys of this Third Life by actually walking-the-walk of my
own 21st Century Retirement.
|
|
I can't tell you that I'm fully retired,
because here I am working. I can say, however, that I continually gain more
control over my work-life choices, and yet, enjoy a freedom that comes from
working for myself that I think anyone of you would acknowledge as a productive,
yet casual lifestyle. |
Assisting you in managing your career
choices, my role as your coach is:
|
To help prepare your transitional
change from work-to-retirement.
To assist you in organizing your thinking and developing the best plan
for you.
To facilitate and strengthen your ability to create your new life
style.
To help you deal with the issues that creep into uncharted
waters and steer you offcourse.
