Episode 267
Purpose Matters More in Retirememt
In this solo episode of Beyond Retirement, Jacquie discusses the ideas presented by Ian Chamandy in the previous episode.
Do you know what makes YOU uniquely remarkable? If you do, you're probably in the minority of retirees, because most of us haven't spent much time thinking about our purpose in those terms. We can all describe what we did or what our job title was, but that doesn't make us unique. What you bring to the table each time you show up... THAT is what makes you YOU.
Many people call this your "purpose". Whatever you choose to call it, this deep-seated knowledge gives you confidence and helps you make tough decisions... assuming you recognize it and let it guide you.
Learning to recognize what makes you unique gives you a lot of advantages, including (but not limited to):
- establishing your identity
- reducing indecision in the face of choices
- building confidence
- improving communication
To help you figure out what your unique trait is, think about two significant accomplishments in your life, a personal one and a professional one, and try to identify what was present in those events. Did a talent show itself? What belief(s) can you identify related to the event's success? If you can find a talent, skill, or thread common to both accomplishments, that is a great starting point.
