I am retiring from my "working career" on Tuesday, September 1st. I'm not quite 60. It's been my long-term dream and plan to retire before the age of 60, so once again, I've completed my mission!
It takes a dream, careful and thoughtful planning, and continued devotion to realizing your dream to have it come true. It means, sometimes, shifting priorities. It means, sometimes, being selfish. I've worked very hard for many many years, and I am proud of my career and all that I have accomplished. I truly and completely believe that you CAN make it happen. But you can't sit back and wait for life to happen to you, you have to be a willing and present participant.
