Stay active and keep yourself busy after you retire from your job. Most of the people who get retirement from work, take rest and waste their time. Taking a rest might seem a good idea in the short run, but things can get a bit too tricky in the long run. Since economic conditions do not allow many people to sit idle for long, you have to do things that can make your retirement productive and entertaining.

Be social as it will keep your energetic and alive mentally. Nothing can be worse than being confined to yourself as you will need people to interact with. Most of the retirees stop interacting with people they used to meet before their retirement and this is what makes them useless. In order to enjoy your retirement life, join different social clubs where get-togethers are common.

Become a mentor. Since you are now free and can allocate enough time to mentoring others, you should think about starting teaching. No matter what field you belonged to during your service, you can transfer your knowledge and skills to others. Offer your services to the newbies in your field, making money and keeping yourself busy at the same time.

Start a home-based business. It is not that hard to start a small scale business and it costs very little to get it up and running. There are plenty of small business you can initiate while being at home. For instance, if you are expert in a special recipe, you can run a home-based kitchen.

Travel a lot. Traveling not only teaches in several ways, but it also entertains you. You do not have to spend lots of money to travel, just get around in your own city, exploring life and culture. If you have enough money, you can also visit other countries and cities.
