1.Routine is your friend
Immediately after you retire, sleep in and take the time to do anything you want to do.
But after a month, create a new routine.
When we have a routine, we are actually carving out time for what matters to us.
This trick allows us to focus on giveback, meeting up with friends, exercising, and more.

2. Don’t be afraid to change
During childhood, you thought about your dreams and developed goals to achieve them. Then, you worked hard through school and early adulthood to make your goals a reality.
Then, once families started and the height of your career took over, your goals likely took a backseat to help others reach theirs.
But now it is your time to get back to you!
Who do you want to become? What dreams do you have? Do you have a goal you have always wanted to accomplish?
Find that hobby, sign up for classes, explore a passion you have always had – just get out there and do you! It’s time to reinvent yourself!

3. Relationships are key
The most meaningful thing in your life is, and has always been, the people.
During the height of work, it can be challenging to carve time away to put significant time into your relationships.
Times have changed. Now you can show the people you love what they mean to you.
Focus on your family, friends, grandkids. Go on trips, vacations, and see the world. Attend art classes and make Friday night cookies a regular event.

4. Make health a top priority
When we balance the plates of work, kids, family, life events… it is challenging to prioritize health. Yet, as we age, the importance of our well-being cannot be emphasized enough.
Stay active. Whether joining your local Zumba class, taking up spinning, or just going for power walks in the morning, getting active reduces stress and builds essential muscles and bone health.

5. Get your chat on
If you recently ended a high-stress career, you are absolutely entitled to some quiet time. But then… get back out there!
Finding friend groups, volunteering, and scheduling events give you a social outlet. These groups always look for people to help at activities, charity events, or even to take up roles in HOAs, community projects, or local schools.
As a result, you will find your life more fulfilled and decrease any feelings of loneliness.

6. Head back to work
Work may be the last thing on your mind. After all, didn't you just finish that gig?
Some of us like to work and feel lost without our career. It kept us engaged, gave us extra income to spend, connected us to a social group, and, depending on the job, provided an opportunity to give back.
The difference is now that you are retired, you can choose a job that fulfills you versus a job for the purpose of paying the bills.
