I recommend a sabbatical, an intentional rest, upon retirement. Then, work out your list.

Sounds like a plan to me. I bet I last a day! I have a 'need to be doing things' personality. I always need to be doing something.

I'd like to know how your friends got busier in retirement than when they had full-time jobs. I assume that "being busy" in their case means being busy doing things they don't really want/like to do.

This is the big mystery.

I was out for a drink with two of my retired friends last night, and when they started talking about what they were doing, they sounded very busy. I guess things just dill up their time, and they take on stuff they previously ignored.
