Now That You’ve Got More Time, What Are You Going To Do With It?

Hello friends, I hope all is well in your world.  Did you know that on average people worldwide are living six years longer than they were 20 years ago?  Thanks to improved medical advances and declining tobacco use the average life expectancy for women in the United States is 81 and male life expectancy is 76.

So now that you’ve got more time, what are you going to do with it? If you are nearing retirement or have retired what creative and inexpensive activities would you like to do in your golden years?

Getting together with friends or neighbors visiting cultural sites, libraries, historic homes or museums or how about taking a Yoga or Tai Chi class to increase your flexibility.

Have you ever wanted to write a book, sing, act, paint, or learn to play a musical instrument? Perhaps you would enjoy sharing your knowledge by teaching, writing a blog or in specialty cooking and baking.  Local travel to neighboring states discovering what is in your own back yard can also be an inexpensive adventure.

No matter what you choose, if you start making a list now while you’re still working you’ll have more to look forward to when that great day actually arrives.

Let's Chat What is the one activity that you’ve always wanted to do but never had the time?

 

Stay Blessed ~ No Stress in 2014!
