Abstract

If I retire, I'll wake up in the morning and have nowhere to go... I feel like I will no longer have a ``role'' or a ``place''. My physical strength and energy decreased significantly. From our late 50s, when we begin to worry about how much time we have left in our lives, to our 60s and 70s, everyone is attacked by such anxiety. But this is the turning point. With just a little bit of heart, you can brighten your future life. What kind of person can be happy in the second half of their life? A psychology doctor reveals the mindset and tips of such people.
〇 Having no hobbies is proof that you have worked hard at work. There is no need to look for unreasonable hobbies! I can finally escape from the life of an "industrial robot". There's no point in worrying about new relationships now.
〇A substitute for your psychological place can be created anywhere. Whether in a quiet library or in the bustle of town. Rich times come in times of solitude.
〇Old age is a time of various losses. You may lose your youth, your job, or even your beloved spouse. In such a case, here's what to do...
〇Listen to the words of your predecessors and masters of life and learn about their way of life.
You too can be of help to someone someday, somewhere! As I read on, my anxiety faded away. This is truly a gospel book for the elderly and those just before that age.
