Late Life Entrepreneur

As never before people approaching retirement age and beyond are running businesses. Some have been in business for years, others are just starting out.

The considerations and challenges for this group are quite different from those of other ages. Hard decisions need to be made and that's not always easy to do alone. Being in this category myself I found out recently how things can change that will affect you and your business.

Time is of the essence now. So what are the considerations? Some are business, some are financial, some are quite personal. Given that there will be a limited time in which to achieve what you want in your business and your life, now is the time to review and possibly reset your priorities?

As a result of dealing with my own recent age-related changes, I've learned that others my age are facing many of these same changes. Body and health changes, emotional changes, attitude changes, energy changes, and relationship changes, are just some of what we're experiencing, Many of these are unexpected and unwelcome. How can we cope and reset our priorities to help keep us feeling in control of our lives?

So I've initiated local small group gatherings which meet monthly. See the Calendar for the current activities. We come together to talk about the things we can't seem to talk about with others in our lives. Hear what others our age are experiencing, compare notes, and be prepared to give and get support for making hard decisions.
