1. Focus on enjoying people, not on indulging in or accumulating material things.
2. Plan to spend whatever you saved. You deserve to enjoy it and the few healthy years
you have left. Travel if you can afford it. Don't leave anything for your children or loved
ones to quarrel about. By leaving anything, you may even cause more trouble when you
are gone.
3. Live in the here and now, not in the yesterdays and tomorrows. It is only today that you
can handle. Yesterday is gone and tomorrow may not even happen.
4. Enjoy your grandchildren (if you are blessed with any) but don't be their full time baby
sitter. You have no moral obligation to take care of them. Don't have any guilt about
refusing to baby sit any one's kids including your own grand kids. Your parental obligation
is to your children. After you have raised them into responsible adults, your duties of
child-bearing and babysitting are finished. Let your children raise their own offspring.
5. Accept physical weakness, sickness and other physical pains. It is a part of the aging
process. Enjoy whatever your health can allow.
6. Enjoy what you are and what you have right now. Stop working hard for what you do
not have. If you do not have them, it's probably too late.
7. Just enjoy your life with your spouse, children, grandchildren and friends. People, who
truly love you, love you for your self, not for what you have. Anyone who loves you for
what you have will just give you misery.
8. Forgive and accept forgiveness. Forgive yourself and others. Enjoy peace of mind and
peace of soul.
9. Befriend death. It's a natural part of the life cycle. Don't be afraid of it. Death is the
beginning of new and better life. So, prepare yourself not for death but for a new life
with the Almighty.
10. Be at peace with your Creator...For...He is all you have after you leave this life.
