Boomers may want to recall one of the poets they grew up reading, Dylan Thomas, and his most famous poem, named for its first line, “Do not go gentle into that good night,” a desperate appeal to resist the trappings of old age.
“As they retire, baby boomers need to stay true to their reputation for grand statements, and to mobilize their skill set in the business world,” says media expert Steve Kayser, author of “The Greatest Words You’ve Never Heard.”
“In fact, many older Americans may have little choice but to adapt their mindset and survive longer in their careers if they want to maintain something resembling their current lifestyle during retirement.”
Kayser lists a few trends that may incentivize aging workers to clock in for a few more years:
But with an increasingly competitive pool of professionals whose skill sets need to be regularly updated, how can boomers stay in the game?
Kayser quotes Alvin Toffler: “The illiterate of the 21st century will not be those who cannot read and write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.”
He discusses his method for how older workers can maintain their value – by staying “R-E-L-E-V-A-N-T.”
