Sawasdee to Monday and hope you all have started fresh na ka.
Yesterday was my first year anniversary of my early retirement and I was sick ka.
Resting in bed gave me some thought about me and my early retirement. One of (tens) reasons was about health ka....not that I was unhealthy or sick with some diseases but I looked for a 'healthy retirement' to enjoy life while I could. If I continued working at the pace I did the past decades, I wasn't so sure loei la ka!
Have you thought of your health after retirement mai ka?
After one year of staying at home, people around me especially my immediate family members said 'it went by so fast!' I felt so too and was happier to hear that because it 'could mean' my more frequent presence didn't really interrupt their own routine ka:))! Partly it could be that I still have some little projects to do and occupy myself in the study! In between, it was so nice to have more time for my family and friends ka. I coached my nieces and helped write short articles for my nephew's free newspapers while continuing doing a bit on internationalization and EdPEx.
Have you planned to have some little projects to do before retirement?
Reading-- one thing that I can do more (though admittedly, my addiction to games has stolen lots of my reading time ka!)
Over the weekend, I read two translated books, one on 'Maximize your Mind Power' and 'Motivate People'. Flipped through quite fast (in Thai ngai ka!) as I feel some aren't that applicable to our context....found something different yet useful to think further too ka. I like this one ka...'to be like a small kid' who is always curious and excited to find out new things! It creates motivation, courage, and learning dee ka! Have one question for you from one of the books ka:
Have you thought of what you want your team to remember about you after you leave your job/retirement? If yes, what have you been doing and how?
Honestly, this is what I don't find applicable to me as I didn't really think about it loei la ka! Should I have thought about it mai ka? Would life have been different and more productive had I thought about it? Um! I'll keep thinking ka.
I now move to read another one, which seems to be more interesting ka: 'Business Protocol in Thailand' by former Executive VP of Toyota Motor Thailand'....again in Thai:))!
Happy Monday na ka.
