I cannot believe that I am 64! Of course I said this when I turned 50, then 60 and now 64.
Many of you might have too.
This is a big year for me. I set out to re-invent myself and I know I am not alone.
Like many boomers, I ponder where life will take me next? What’s in store?
I have had a dream for awhile now and am finally ready to make it happen.
Today I launch ABoomersFootprint.com. Some of you have heard me talk about this idea for perhaps 10 years. Yes, 10 years.
In my defense, I can say honing the message, thinking about my readers and gaining the self-confidence that transitioning from accountant to writer were possible took some time. But now I BELIEVE.
My message, better outlined on the Mission and About Dorothy pages is to present topics and conversations in areas of importance to Boomers in which I have experience and knowledge. This is why I have chosen the tag line:
Making a Difference for Ourselves, Others and the Planet
As boomers, we have plenty of critics who focus on how selfish we were and still are.
While there may be truth to this point, we also have made great contributions so far.
The past is the past. The question now is:
How will we make a difference in our future?
During this “3rd act in life”, our opportunities and needs will change. In ABoomersFootprint.com I want to educate, encourage and challenge all of us to take personal and community responsibility for our choices as we age.
Are you ready? Stay tuned.
