This is a simple blog... with a huge ambition ...its my journey towards an early retirement...not from life but from the big bad yet wonderful corporate world.....its my way of re-defining my life ... reclaiming it and reliving it ... so why ?
I work in a wonderful job and a great firm - i truly love what i have but then its been 16 years of a non-stop roller coaster ride - and i am not so sure i enjoy the ride as much anymore!
i still love it - but i can feel the hinges creaking....and while I still 'ooh' and 'aah' and 'yipee' as the roller coaster goes up and down -they are few and far between .
so where does/did it all begin...well i am an ordinary person with no special talent ... i am in a job i enjoy but it is not really based on any special talent - it was a combination of an education and a degree and then a lot of hard work and decisions taken over a period of time .
i did discover certain qualities about myself along the way - qualities not talent....i like working with people, i am good with numbers, i am a good thinker,project manager and i am quite focused and driven. I have done well for myself - no complaints there - financially and otherwise ...but i want to get off this roller coaster - i now want a simpler life ,an easier life without all the trappings of the corporate world.
Some of the choices i have made in life do make it easier for me to do it - no kids to put through expensive college education, healthy parents ( touchwood) with a good medical support system , lack of an expensive lifestyle (aka foreign travel,big house,expensive gizmos,a big (bigger) car) .
so what does the date 31st December 2018 signify - its the date I will finally get off the roller coaster . Why a date in the future - well if i get off the roller coaster suddenly , i will get dizzy and lose my focus. Having been on this ride for so very long i need to ease myself off it , i also need to be financially,mentally and emotionally prepared to give up a life that i have known and loved ( for the most part) for most of my adult life... and the goal oriented person that i am ,i need to set a target and then work towards it.
For the next couple of years i want to use this blog to explore and express myself as i go through this journey - it is a journey of a rebirth - death of who i am today and a rebirth of who i will be in the future. i want to write about what it will mean -in terms of my life/my lifestyle ,reactions of friends,family and colleagues and my own feelings and preparation for this new phase of ME
and last but not the least here is something i read many years ago which triggered this thought in my head - i dont remember who said it tho - 'no man on his deathbed ever said , i wish i had spent more time at work'....
