This may seem illogical. You’ve worked all of your life. You may be looking forward to not doing anything like that anymore. By all means, take a vacation. But make it a short one. The human body is designed to move. The human mind is designed to solve problems. If you don’t exercise your body, it rots. If you don’t solve problems, your mind rots. Or you start wondering if anything matters any more.
We like vacations because they are surrounded by work. A good vacation refreshes you so you are ready to go out and solve problems again. When you retire, give yourself a new job. Make it something you love to do and can be passionate about. It will give you a reason to look forward to getting up in the morning.
