"So much of our time is preparation, so much is routine, and so much retrospect, that the path of each man's genius contracts itself to a very few hours."
We start 'working' hard the moment we enter this world.
We learn through our environment;
We pick up skills along the way;
We fall and bring ourselves up again - all these by our own effort.
We strive to excel in whatever we do;
We strive not to fail our loved ones;
We strive towards recognition and own dreams;
We strive towards a better tomorrow.
We slog this much, all for the sake of a 'good' retirement in old age.
But how many of us actually get to enjoy a 'good' retirement?
And what defines a 'good' retirement?
Lots of savings / tip-top health / many children and grandchildren / loving partner / engagement in social activities etc. etc??
Lots of savings / tip-top health / many children and grandchildren / loving partner / engagement in social activities etc. etc??
Can one really have all of above and does having all of above truly promises a 'good' retirement?
Shouldn't we start making our life meaningful, for THIS Moment?
Work and achieve for NOW, as we never know: "IF TOMORROW COMES".
