Keri and I bought our first (and only) home in 2003, and we fell in love with our location – backing onto a park, with amazing neighbours and a great view from our deck.
However, our home had some pretty serious issues as it turned out.
A leaky basement at times. Ice building up in closets due to poor insulation. And when we finally took the plunge to renovate, they found asbestos in our attic insulation and in the drywall mud throughout the main floor.
The renovation upgraded many parts of our home, and we thankfully no longer get water in our basement!
The solution was pretty simple compared to what we might have had to do if our home was close to the ocean, where hurricanes and storms can devastate houses.
One of the ways to protect an ocean-side house is to build it on pillars.
Much safer.
Your Retirement Lifestyle is no different.
The 4 Pillars to Retire Abundantly are:
Pillar #1: Becoming the PERSON you want to be.
Pillar #2: Doing the THINGS you want to do.
Pillar #3: Being with the PEOPLE you want to be with.
Pillar #4: Making the DIFFERENCE you want to make.
Picture becoming the person you want to be, while doing the things you want, with the people you like, AND making the difference you want to make.
Would you say that would be abundant? Enjoying yourself and finishing strong?
I think so. Hope you agree.
So… what is standing in the way of you being able to enjoy an Abundant Retirement?
NOW is the time to remove the obstacles and protect yourself from the dangers, because it is not a pipe dream.
It can be your reality.
Do ONE thing today! Write down what it means to you.
Start by writing down a sentence that would describe the ideal in each one of the pillars.
Then have your plan tested to be sure it’s in harmony with what you wrote down!
