Retirement and losing an identity that you've had for so long, can be a lot of work...for some of us.
Just throw yourself into it as if it were a major, company changing project...at your old employer (or business).
You may find that just identifying, planning, scheduling and participating in all of the opportunities here (spreadsheets are fun)...is a lot like those old important projects.
Just realize that the beneficiary and all of the success & rewards this time...is for yourself.
Good luck.
