LOL!! Love this article. I have been a serial reinventor all my life but definitely finding it more challenging now. In my previous incarnations I have always worked for someone else but now realize that I am totally not suited to that. Working on the gap between where I am and where I want to be!! Thanks for the great advice.

So good to read this. After the last ten years in a commissioned sales environment that sucks the life out of you, I returned to school. I still want to use my sales/marketing experience in a different field but I’m in FL with a very crappy economy and can’t seem to find anything, even less qualified positions. So i will have to return to the sales force and hope to get out someday.

Thank you for writing this. After being severed from 25 years in the public service, I was really happy. Woo Hoo retirement at 49! But after a two month honeymoon, I had all the same anxieties that you describe, who am I, what if there is nothing else I can do. Thanks for sharing your story, I don’t feel so alone.

Shannon,
You’re right. I got a mega-dose of humility, but I was also able to experience a lot of personal growth.

Love this, love this, love this. The best part of all of it is that at our moderately advanced age we have the opportunity to keep learning. Thereby keeping our brains growing. And humility isn’t such a bad thing. Even though i hate being humbled.
