Bruce Dufty presenting great words of wisdom | Stages of Life and Retirement - Sound Advice from Bruce Dufty |
Ready Set Retire Bruce quietly and systematically walked us through the human life cycle from birth to retirement (death is supposed to conclude the cycle but time did not permit this natural eventuality). Each stage depicts certain characteristics, and our progress through and adaptation to the different stages is inevitably conditioned by family and social values and beliefs. Retirement is one stage of the cycle which can sometimes appear daunting to many people. Change is confronting and for many of us diverting from our established routines is inconceivable. We must think of retirement like a normal part of the cycle, not some ‘exotic’ unknown which will revolutionize the world. He related examples of challenges and victories from empirical observations supported by independent studies to inform us that the stage of human life cycle, usually 50’s to 60’s when most of us are contemplating retirement is the most productive stage. It is the stage of relationship and wisdom, accrued from life experiences and challenges. In the 60’s to 70’s we go through the stage of changes, work, home, family, routines etc.
