Believe me, if you’re reasonably confident, it’s only scary before you do it. Just like anything else. I give thanks every day now that I can live this life now.
Loving the evolution from a “pedal to the metal” mentality to a "writing for writing’s sake" mentality. Hopefully, I'll have this kind growth propensity to look forward to when I finally retire.
Love this, Cork. It's interesting to think of different experiences for different people under similar umbrellas. For me, given writing is my career, my "retirement" is ideally only writing this newsletter, so I approach it differently. I love reading all the angles.
Looks to be a wonderful life! So happy for you and Susan! I'm sure it will just keep getting better my friend!
Great post. I turned 60 late last year and retirement seems closer. And scary.🫣

Thank you, Billy. I see great things for you because of your perseverance through the trials you've faced.

Thanks, Rocco. Your "angle has been most intriguing to me. If I had it to do all over again, I would probably follow the "never retire" approach.
Congratulations on achieving a peaceful and relaxed perspective, after winding down from the treadmill.
