Willpower alone will never lead to success. It certainly won’t help you create a successful Encore Career. You need more than willpower–you need habits.
Today, I want to talk all about healthy habits and how to implement them. To help me do so, I’m going back over some ideas from the study, “Longevity and the New Journey of Retirement” by Edward Jones and AgeWave. They talk about the stages of retirement and the disorientation that comes with it.
When we retire, we disrupt the habits of work we've had for 30-40 years. All of a sudden, we’re launched into a new environment. Additionally, in corporate life, you had a level of drive. You pushed through things and made it work. In your Encore Career, however, you only have so much drive.
All of this explains why we have to depend on routines, checklists, and habits to help support us as we create our new Encore Career. Tune in to learn how!
We'll dive deeper into these concepts:
How to create a new habit.
How to identify the distractions that are getting in your way.
Why tracking your habits is important.
Why you need to stop being so hard on yourself.
Four especially useful habits.
The power of simplification.
Application questions to ask yourself.
