The two most vulnerable years of our lives are the year we are born, and the year we retire. The reasons during the year we are born are quite obvious but why the year we retire? We spend a majority of our lives going to school or working. During those years we typically identify with what we are doing and have at least somewhat of a purpose. Many lose their identity and sense of purpose on the day they retire.

Have you ever really thought about what you will do on a day to day basis when you retire? What will keep you going, motivated, and excited about life? What will help you with your identity and sense of purpose?

Here is an idea for you, network marketing.

Network marketing can play an important role in your transition from working full time to retirement in more ways than one.

When we think of retirement, we typically focus on the financial aspects. We know that the cost of living continues to rise, people are working well into their 70s, and many are still trying to recover from the latest recession. Yes, it’s quite obvious that network marketing can and does help many with the financial aspects of retirement. However, most overlook the crucial connection between network marketing and well-being.

You see, retirement is not just about money and having enough of it, it’s about enjoying the pleasures of life. Too many of us forfeit our lives for money. We sacrifice relationships, miss out on family events, and lose connections with friends and loved ones all in hopes of recouping that when we retire. As a result, when it’s time to retire we are left with essentially nothing but a big pile of money.

Yes, this example may be extreme. However, the point here is retirement creates many gaps in one’s well-being.

Network marketing is a platform that helps provide purpose, continued self-development, identity, and a network of like-minded people that treat each other like family. True network marketers are constantly reading self-development books, attending events, sharing their inspiration, chasing goals, and encouraging others. They are selling products they use or consume and can stand behind.

We are looking at a business model that allows you to work as little or as much as you want, introduces you to people all over the world, focuses on connecting and relationships, provides just enough but not too much structure, and hosts an environment for personal growth. All things that many retirees miss in their life.

So what is your retirement plan? It might be time to give network marketing a try.
