No, I'm not planning to retire anytime soon. But I'm a firm believer that retirement is one of those things that we all should start planning early - because otherwise by the time you get there, it will be too late.
When it comes to retirement planning, many of us think of our savings strategies and whether or not we’ll have enough set aside to live comfortably after we step back from our career. But retirement planning should involve a lot more than just financials.
If you focus exclusively on making sure you can retire, you’re much more likely to feel lost once you actually do.
Unsurprisingly, the probability of experiencing clinical depression rises by about 40 percent after retirement. Many don’t realize how much they rely on their career for a routine, community, and sense of purpose—and they forget to plan how they’ll go about finding those after they retire.
It’s never too early to plan for retirement, both financially and emotionally. Writing up a bucket list for your retirement lifestyle can not only ease your post-career transition, but research shows that visualizing your retirement life in detail can actually increase the likelihood that you achieve those ideals.
The key to visualization is specificity, which is why you should create a bucket list that is catered to your individual preferences and personality. These printable lists are a great place to get started, as they include suggestions for seven different personalities: the adventurous, foodies, romantics, nature-lovers, culture buffs, quirky retirees, and those with a penchant for the luxurious. Select one of these lists and run with it, or use these as a starting point and modify them as you go!
