A number of factors affect one's attitude toward retirement, retirement, said Mr. Cyr. For example, if one is prepared economically for retirement and is enjoying a good health he can usually cope with and survive retirement. The speaker pointed out that economic stability for the years during retirement is not a short term plan. He stated that at 55 years of age you have waited too long in planning and preparing for the ultimate changes resulting from retirement. . "If you started to save money and plan at 30 it would not have been soon enough," said Mr. Cyr. The speaker said that one should define his fears surrounding surrounding the changes involved with retirement and evaluate them carefully. z He feels that retirement is a transition to a new phase of life that requires not only the right frame of mind, a good state of health, a sense of security but also continuity in one's already established lifestyle. Mr. Cyr warned not to rush out and take on new hobbies that really hold no interest for you just because you are retired and have extra time to occupy. He said if you hate golf and have never golfed don't go out and golf just because you feel you have nothing else to do. Planning ahead you can find areas of interest that can be elongated after you retire. Time to do things you enjoy or always wanted to do is now available. Each individual will approach retirement and aging in their own way, said Mr. Cyr. Previous adaption levels play a large part in the ability to cope with this new set of circumstances. Retirement is a phase that should be prepared for well in advance, concluded Mr. Cyr. He implied that by putting all of your eggs in one basket and not diversifying your lifestyle enough is almost guaranteed to tarnish one's golden years. . Although there are many factors affecting one's retirement retirement Mr. Cyr said that most people today generally have a good attitude towards retirement retirement and succeed in enjoying "life after work."
