As we move into old age, the pace of life naturally slows down, and even if we have enough wealth and free time, we should be more careful about how we spend our time. Speaking from experience, here are some things you would recommend doing less or not doing as you get older.
Avoid using your former workplace as a base for small talk. When we quit our jobs, we naturally have less contact with our original employers. If you make frequent return visits, your colleagues may be able to understand them at first, but in the long run, it may interfere with their normal work.
Spending money on your pension is not a good idea. Pensions are a sensitive topic for many older people. If you have a large pension, excessive ostentation will only attract the envy of others. Conversely, if you have a small pension, you may also have self-doubt.
In addition, it is necessary to exercise caution when entering the investment market, especially to avoid blindly investing in high-risk products such as **. The pension of the elderly is particularly important, and they should not be reckless in financial management and cause unnecessary economic losses.
The hobby of collecting antiques and calligraphy and paintings is also recommended to slow down in old age. Sometimes, investing in art may not appreciate in time, and long-term anxiety and waiting may be detrimental to physical and mental health.
Also, try to minimize walking into entertainment venues such as bars and KTVs as you get older. Most of these places are crowded by young people, and frequent visits by older people may not only feel out of place, but may also affect their health.
The food in restaurants is rich in oil and salt, and frequent dining out is not good for the elderly. Home cooking is healthier and more economical.
At the same time, avoid staying in mahjong parlors for long periods of time. Playing mahjong can be too exciting for older people, which is not good for physical and mental health, and it is easily addictive.
Listening to health supplement lectures and buying related products is often a waste of money and time. Older people should stick to a reasonable diet and moderate exercise to maintain their health.
In addition, control the interaction with friends of the opposite sex to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. If it is not necessary, do not consider remarrying lightly to avoid the troubles caused by complex interpersonal relationships.
Don't rely on the old and sell the old, and be kind to the young. It is necessary to understand the changes of the times and respect the differences of thought between different generations.
Similarly, do not visit your children frequently to respect their living space and independence. The elderly should know how to reduce intervention and keep the relationship harmonious.
When traveling, pay attention to avoid the rush hour. Choose a suitable group and time slot when traveling to avoid physical exhaustion.
Be careful not to disturb people when dancing square dancing or other outdoor exercises. Try to minimize frequent visits to the hospital due to minor illnesses and illnesses, and maintain a calm mind when dealing with physical changes.
In short, in old age, you need to accept the changes in the rhythm of life, advocate simple inner peace, and enjoy a quiet and beautiful life in old age.
