Hello {!firstname}:
 I’m
pretty certain that what the world needs now is the power of positivity, and,
I’m doing my part by practicing every single day in large and small ways. The
first ever Good Vibes Coaching Group has been together for two months,
and because I’m working the 90-Day Attraction Action Program right along with
them, they’re not the only ones creating miracles in their lives.
In addition to this daily practice, I’ve been eating really well, slowing down
to savor it, drinking plenty of water, and getting 8 hours of sleep most nights.
Oh, and I’ve been making sure I get my buns over to the Sacred Way Trail most
mornings each week for my meditative walk in nature.
I’ve been laughing more, loving more, and oh boy, the amazing opportunities that
are flying in the door every day are so much fun. I LOVE my life!!
If you’re less than thrilled with your life right now, you can change it.
Attitude is everything, so begin -- or continue -- to practice positivity, and
believe. Anything IS possible!
To your endless possibilities!
Lin Schreiber, Retirement Revolutionary

The Truth About Encore Careers
by Lin Schreiber, Retirement
Coach
 You’re
leaving your current career behind, either because it’s time to move on or
you’ve been retired before you’re ready. You want to (or have to) continue to
work. You can’t imagine spending the next decade or more doing more of what
you’ve been doing. You like the idea of an encore career, but you’re not sure
exactly what an encore career is. Here’s the 411 on encore careers. They:
Are Not the Same Old Same Old. Tell the truth. How many times in your
current career have you chosen the next logical step or the path of least
resistance whether it felt right or not? How long has it been since you felt
truly challenged and exhilarated by your work? Have you ever?
Think of your encore career as a giant step away from what you’ve been doing,
especially if what you’ve been doing no longer pulls you out of bed each
morning. Let go of the way you’ve always gone about finding what’s next, and
come at it from a brand new angle. An encore career should be fresh,
exhilarating, and engaging.
Require You to Think (Way) Outside the Box. Don’t just take the lid off
the box you’re in, actually step out of -- and then get rid of -- it altogether.
This is the perfect opportunity to reinvent yourself in a way that (maybe for
the first time in your life) is a purest expression of your authentic self. You
can’t do that if you’re trapped inside a box that no longer fits who you are,
where you want to be, and what you want to be doing. Be bold in your approach,
and you’ll reap the rewards for years to come.
Are Fulfilling. Have you ever been so fully engaged in an activity (for
me it’s working on a mosaic project) that you completely lose track of time?
Remember how much fun you were having; how filled to overflowing you felt?
That’s the feeling you’re going for in an encore career.
You will be fulfilled in your encore career because it will satisfy your deepest
desires and be aligned with what you value most at this time of your life. You
know what it’s like to be unfulfilled in your work. You don’t need to go there
again.
Are Meaningful. What’s the purpose of an encore career? It’s simple: to
give you a purpose, a reason for living. An encore career should move your soul
and touch your heart because you’re living the life you’re meant to be living.
Only then will you find the meaning you’re yearning for.
Make a Contribution. This is a vital part of an encore career. It’s not
about working for the sake of working. It’s not even about working for the sake
of making money (although you may need to). It’s about making a difference on
the planet. And, since you’ve gotten rid of the box and are thinking bigger and
bolder than ever before, you’ll discover that there are lots of different ways
to make a difference.
Of course, you could use your abundance of talent to help solve one of the
abundance of problems we face in the 21st century. You could also start a
business that employs people in your community, while providing a product or
service that improves people’s lives. You might write books that inform or
create works of art that inspire. Expand your thinking to explore all the
different ways you can make a contribution.
Can Be Lucrative. If you’re set financially and want to volunteer your
time and your talent to a worthy cause, great. If you’re retirement nest egg has
taken a hit, or wasn’t that big to begin with, and it’s important to make good
money, get creative. There are lots of ways to make money, make a difference,
have a purpose and live your values. You’ll have to let go of your dinky
thinking and those stinky old limiting beliefs that will only hold you back.
But, it’ll be worth it.
