Getting back on track while you prepare to retire

However good your intentions, do you find that sometimes several days go by and you don't get done what you hoped to get done? I'm like that too, I've been away for a few days and it's always a dilemma for me whether to keep on track or just relax and forget about goals for a few days. Actually retirement is a great time to come to terms with having goals but also being comfortable about letting go and doing whatever seems the right thing to do at the time.

Getting the balance right is sometimes the difficult bit, the balance between: doing whatever seems the thing to do at the time, or being too rigid and not trying anything new or exciting.

How about you? Are you a rigid 'keep to the plan'  type of person, or are you learning to 'go with the flow' more as you don't have the same pressures as you do when you have to keep to a work schedule?
