Many people get stuck in halftime or resign themselves to plod through their first careers in their second half simply because they have not tried other options.
The best way to explore options is to take a low cost probe &$151; low cost in terms of time and funds. Becoming engaged in activities that change lives often becomes so compelling that the things of the former or current life become strangely dim.
In a study of 80 year-olds, when asked if they had to do it all over again, what would they do different, most said "I would have risked more." You want to avoid that regret.
You can engage
- In your church
- In a local volunteer organization
- In with an organization with a global reach.
