The author, Eric.Plasker, has a comprehensive view of the topic, better than my own. (This contrast reminds of my Q&A with Henry.Luo about database turning, when Henry said the main thing is index.)
Jolt: The “lifestyle assessment” is thought-provoking, incisive, and a seed of multiple self-analyses, although some of Plasker’s keywords are ambiguous (explained in his subsequent chapters).
(The question numbers below are NOT Plaker’s.)
Q: Do you feel good about your current health condition?
%%A: I feel “always”, though my (or anyone’s) health condition at my age always has weaknesses. This question is more about “feel good”, which is a “perception_of_reality”.
Sexual health is a huge part of “feel good”, but here I need serenity + zqbx.
Q: Do you live in a peaceful (stress-free) home environment?
%%A: “Stress-free” is impossible in a home with kids, so I think “Always” is not for parents with kids. I feel “almost always peaceful”.
Q: Are you surrounded by supportive relationships at home and at work?
%%A: I feel “always”. Relationships at home and at work are more functional. Another form of functional supportive relationship is healthcare (including nursing homes).
%%A: The more emotionally supportive relationships tend to show less “functional overlap” with me, such as grandparents, friends, colleagues from unrelated departments, often just passive listeners for me, but I suspect these relationships are far less crucial.
Q: Have you achieved the balance you are looking for
%%A: “The balance” is personal, and different for each, often about successE, successC, breakaway,,. The balance I am looking for was documented in many bposts. As such, I feel I have achieved it.
Q33a: Are you excited about the possibility of living to 100?
%%A: I feel “nearly always”. I feel “always positive”, looking forward to it. It is impossible to be always excited about anything, because by definition excitement is a burst of feeling.
Q33b: Do you have many goals that you would like to achieve over your extended life?
%%A: currently, I have a few vague goals for my retirement life, but not for my twilight years. Now I think clear goals for my entire extended life can be a life-enhancing motivation.
Q33c: Do you have a clear picture of how you want to use your time during your extended life?
%%A: I feel yes for my pre-retirement years, but no for my retirement years. See [1].
Q33d: Are you passionate about work and the way you earn money?
%%A: In my later career, I need work to fill my time, to provide engagement. A meaningful, engaging occupation is central to my later life. See [1]. I’m always deeply passionate about it.
