Trish and I were talking about retirement. Some people dream of it, others cannot imagine what they would do with all their free time and say, “I would get so bored!”

I can’t remember the last time I was bored. I can easily imagine being retired and spending all of my time doing whatever I want to do. Roli and I would walk for miles every day. I would read all of the books on my list. I would go to the gym more often and get back to practicing guitar.

Which would you prefer, working or retirement?

    I think I’ll wanna keep working in some way shape or form…

    I love working with people and the inspiration to keep learning new ways to help and educate

    Maybe a slightly more balance day though of clients and me time
