Thoughts & Musings on Retirement
With the outbreak of COVID19 requiring quarantine, we are all acutely aware of the stress this places on our economy.
Perhaps you have been laid-off, or your stream of income is otherwise impacted by closures and other people's lay-offs.
We are all in this together, witnessing an entire system slow nearly to a halt. We don't know, at this point, what the long-term repercussions of this are going to be economically.
If you feel overwhelmed by all of the unknowns right now, you are not alone. We are living through something we have not lived through before, which means all of us are wondering 'how long?' and 'what will the long-term repercussions be?'
When you get caught up in this sort of 'scary' thinking - pause. Stay focused in the present. You have what you need at this moment. You are grounded. Think of all the things you are grateful for. Breathe.
You may not know what the future holds, but you can look at other times in your life that you had to adapt and evolve and see that you are capable of doing that.
Be present and trust that you are adaptable.
