Who is your retirement role model?
Have you considered that your parents or others may not have provided the roles that suit you, as you grow older? For example, you are likely to live longer than the previous generation, due to medical advances. You are probably exercising more that your parents and know how to eat well and nutritiously. But who are the people whose lives you admire and demonstrate success in growing older? Do you have older people in your life who provide the way to live as they age? Have a look at the web site www.theelders.org/elders for some inspirational role models.
What about being a role model yourself? Take some time to reflect on your life to date and how you are living with meaning. What it is you do to wake up each day, enthusiastic and engaged with the day? Look at the organisations you are involved in, whether in a paid or voluntary capacity. Decide what give you joy and passion to stay involved. Who are the people you are surrounded by that support you and encourage you? Look at what is meaningful in their lives and discuss what is important for both of you. Perhaps you are own role model for planning your life, in retirement?
