My program is called ONE THING PER DAY.

In order to stay busy in retirement and since we are not wealthy so I cannot travel, I choose to set myself a task of doing ONE thing per day, after I get that one thing done, no matter how small or large the task, the rest of my time is mine to spend as I please. I build scale models and read in my down time.

It can be simple tasks, washing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen, or doing laundry to more complex tasks like yard work or small construction projects, sometimes the tasks take all day, sometimes just an hour or so, but at the end of the year I have over 365 tasks done, a feeling of accomplishment and a pile of money saved because I do the vast majority of work on my own.

May I suggest learning a musical instrument in your retirement. Your one small thing can be 20 minutes of studying. I teach music occasionally at an elderly care facility. It makes a huge difference to their well being and exercises parts of their mind that has never been used. Ukuleles are particularly popular.

Goodwill run.

My “one thing a day” is to drink three beers.
