Synopsis

Make the post-career phase of your life the happiest and most fulfilling time of your life!

This book is about how to flourish in retirement.

It is a practical guide to overcoming the challenges most of us face when we leave the career phase of our lives. Most people don't even realize they will face some challenges. The problem is they are not prepared to deal with all of the changes that occur and the need replace some of the things that were important to them -- their identity based on what they did, feeling like they are making a difference, professional friendships, a structure and rhythm to their lives.
Most of all it is a guide to creating a happy and fulfilling life. Just like you need a financial portfolio to afford to retire, you need a Happiness Portfolio ® to flourish in your Third Act. A Happiness Portfolio ® is more than a bucket list - although bucket list items should be part of it. Your Happiness Portfolio® is your plan for how you want to live every aspect of your life so you feel that you are flourishing. It is about your vision, what you intend to do and how much time and energy you want to invest in each of the eight non-financial areas of your life.
This book includes valuable information supported by scientific research and hands-on experience. The thought-provoking exercises assist you to design your retirement life so you enjoy it to the max and feel that your life is fulfilling. You will explore:

• Why this change is sometimes so difficult.
• How to structure your life so there is plenty of time for both fun and doing things that make you feel like your life is worthwhile
• What it really means to be happy
• Some tools for dealing with the bumps you are certain to encounter along the way

This book is right for you if:

• You intend to retire soon or
• If you retired in the past five years or so
