IMHO most people want to feel they have a purpose in life which may be why transition to retirement is difficult for them. I recall a couple of large companies I worked for offered retirement seminars and courses to prepare their employees for retirement. What I did was gradually wind down how much time I was putting into my work. I retain a few investments which require my attention - but not too much of it. It is important to have something to think about and folks to talk to and socialize with.
