The Third Half of Life
Consciously Designing and Enjoying Retirement
For many people, retirement is something like a “golden goal” at the end of their working life – the best time to finally do whatever they want. But when the time comes, some suddenly fall into a deep hole. On the one hand, this is because the old life structure completely disappears and they first need to develop something different for this new phase of life. On the other hand, the baby boomer generation is especially characterised by a performance-oriented mindset. Allowing themselves to do less or simply enjoy life is a true challenge for many retirees. The authors of this book offer readers very practical advice and insights on how to achieve a successful retirement. They discuss important attitudes such as contentment and acceptance, as well as providing specific exercises and easy-to-learn techniques from psychotherapy, schema therapy and coaching. After all, those who actively design their retirement can also actively enjoy it!
