BLAZE A TRAIL TO
REINVENTION
FOLLOW YOUR PASSION, USE YOUR SKILLS
Careers after retirement can be rewarding, personally and financially. First,
determine whether you have the skills needed for a new venture. If so, update
your resume and start looking at job posts. If not, seek out classes and training—
online or at a local college. Remember to ask whether financial assistance is
available.
Express yourself through the arts. Learn to paint or draw, dust off those dancing
shoes, or put your musical talent to use. Take a class in stand-up comedy or acting,
or finally write that story. Even if you never felt artistic, everyone has the ability to
be creative. As a bonus, studies show that the arts can improve brain health.
Keep learning and growing! Learn a new language or take a computer class. Or,
maybe you have always wanted to travel and discover other cultures. No matter
what you choose, pursuing a new interest will help keep you happy, healthy, and
connected.
Consider using your years of experience to serve others. Volunteers meet a range
of community needs, from mentoring at-risk youth to providing job training to
helping families recover from disasters.
