I know a friend found after his 30 year career as a journalist, shift from working on articles to work with admins. The job of the editor of the consumer magazine and the bureaucratic, political argument that came was no longer what he wanted.
He figured out there was a good chance I think he will live after 90, he began to think about what he wanted to do in the third of his life. Luckily he developed a passion for pottery in the forties and more he did it, more he liked it. So when offered a chance to retire early in 63 he jumped on the opportunity to turn his hobby into his second career.
His biggest challenge was to find a way to sell his work, and he worked for him doing studio sales several times a year. He and his wife bought a 20-acre home in Virginia and converted a four-fold barn into studio workshops and settlements. Three years later, studio sales, a gallery carrying his work, the annual craft show, his website and some of his business are growing well
Best of all he assumes what he loves and does it until they carry him. There is no reason why he does not have another 30 year career after the first. More and more "old gray mares" are following the same path. If you are approaching 50, you are approaching the bat in the second inning of your life. Why not hit it out of the park!
