Dear Boomerlady, My Life is Not Turning Out the Way I thought it would...

I know, I know, theBoomerlady's life is not as she planned it either. But remember, we are baby boomers and we can recreate ourselves as often as we need to.

Get your journal, or laptop and open a new page and write down all of the things that you are unhappy about. Then check each one and consider if they are things that you have any control over.

Think about how your destination. Where do you want to be in your life that you are not? "Begin with the end in mind" (Steven Covey) and work back from there.

You've got to love a gal with a plan and this is one of our strengths.

Many Baby Boomers are struggling with:
  • Aging Parents - Elder Care
  • Adult Children - Still at Home
  • Retirement Planning - Life Choices and Financial Resources
  • Staying at Work Longer Than Planned? What Retirement?
  • Losing Dear Friends to Illness - Facing our own Mortalilty

Then there are relationship issues, divorces, new family configurations, social etiquette, who gets invited to what?

Stay tuned for articles to address the issues above!!!

Couragio!
