When Work Ends, What Begins? Retirement Isn’t the End

Retirement at this age and stage of my life is impossible, I still have a long way to go but for the purpose of this prompt, let me have a thought about it and perhaps retirement is a compulsory stage of life , but not the end of being purposeful.
I have always had a plan of enjoying my retirement peacefully , with my family united and happily, never plan to be a burden to anyone during my retirement days in future,but rather a person who could care for herself without pension and already have other sources of income.
So If I'm retired today and placed on a pension for the rest of my life, I won't rely on the pension, first, but create something that could distract me from my daily boredom , and I will endeavor I endulge in everything I have always wished to do passionately.

I have witnessed old people, get sick or tired of the l feeling that comes with being idole , having zero activities and the pension in my country is a big scam, that even affects them the most , especially if their kids don't have what it takes good care of them.
Most of them feel being retired makes them useless, but I don't agree to that.
I have met old people who are retired , but feel incomplete because all they are use to is endulging in daily activities and stopping is a problem to them at this stage, so having a different source or flow of income at this point is very necessary, this is why I will never recommend a total reliance on pension.

I will like my retirement to be peaceful, because I intend creating other opportunities for myself and still have a different sources of income, because staying without a different source of income will make retirement a burden, so doing what I know how to do best, could help relieve me from some form of unrest and create peace for other activities.
Building a business that would be controlled by others.
Approaching inactivity after many years of working tiredlessly will really be uneasy and these could lead to countless boredom.
So approaching what I have passion for, visiting my business and investment areas will be a done more often.
Studying and research, embracing new hobbies and passion .

Retirement times when there's no work, less activities , just a regular routine could also be a perfect time to follow up your invest and learn or relearn new skills of your choice and a new language.
It's a time to own yourself and enjoy the rest of your life, a time to prioritize rest, spend more time with family and friends, a time to enjoy and find comfort.
Retirement is an opportunity needed to learn new language, new skill and other paths of life at ease.

My plan for retirement, which is far, but I need to start preparing now . A preparation for a better life after retirement starts now, my plan for retirement is to live my best life, go out on vacation with the people I love, always unite family and friends, prioritize rest and build a community of friends that will encourage each other through the processes of retirement .
Also it's a time to reflect on your life and purpose on earth, impact the lives of more people and reach out to as many as I could, forgive those that offended me and build a legacy that would impact many others.

Thanks for reading ♥️
