Well-Come to Retirement: Thriving in Your Third Act answers this question with inspiring stories of 40 older adults who made a successful transition from work to retiring. This is the first book to explore aging through the 8 dimensions of wellness, showing how to create a retirement filled with vigor, usefulness, and enjoyment. The time has come to end the negative stereotyping of elders! The unique stories in Well-Come to Retirement follow the lives of retirees who planned ahead (or not), prepared for surprises, adapted to change, redefined their purpose and identities, and found a balance of wellness. It's never too early to begin seeing the retirement years as a time of joy and personal growth. Well-Come to Retirement charts a course for new adventures and paradigms for aging. Growing older may not be for the faint of heart, but life cannot be lived fully without smelling the roses and feeling their thorns as well. The lessons about living life to the fullest as we grow old and 'retire' are important for all of us. The authors of this book help us to learn through the inspiring stories of people who make living their lives into works of art.
