Why People Resist Retirement
Research suggests making the decision to retire means grappling with
three psychological issues. First, identity issues can loom large for
any deeply engaged professional. Even a small step away from a career
can make a person wonder who they are without it. Second, many older
professionals resist leaving meaningful work. And third is the dread
of losing the strong relationships that accumulate over the course of
a long, successful career. New research suggests that leaders who
develop an accurate awareness of who they really are and what their
job really demands of them are much better equipped to overcome the
psychological barriers to retirement.

The result is a veritable schism on the right over Mr. Reagan’s

shape its future. What’s perhaps most telling about this internal
battle, however, is that the various factions — those who reject
Reaganism, those who defend it and those who stress the commonalities
between Reaganism and Trumpism — all tend to paint portraits of Mr.
Reagan that omit the very attributes that made him such a broadly
popular political figure: his pragmatism and nose for compromise.

can make a person wonder who they are without it. Second, many older
professionals resist leaving meaningful work. And third is the dread

psychological barriers to retirement.

So in that context, the fact that Plaud’s NotePin is focused only on
note-taking may be a disappointment, or it might make the company’s
promises seem more believable. You can wear it as a necklace or a
wristband, allowing you to record meetings and dictate notes to
yourself, and those recordings are then transcribed using OpenAI’s

The Fed's favorite inflation indicator increased 0.2% in July, as
expected

The Fed is expected now to switch from a nearly complete focus on
bringing down inflation to at least an equal concentration on
supporting the labor market. Though the unemployment rate is still low
at 4.3%, it has been trending higher over the past year, and surveys
suggest a slowdown in hiring and a perception among workers that jobs
are getting tougher to come by.

Opinion | Conservatives Are Fighting Over Ronald Reagan's Legacy. They

The result is a veritable schism on the right over Mr. Reagan’s
legacy, and more broadly, over whether the conservative past should
shape its future. What’s perhaps most telling about this internal
battle, however, is that the various factions — those who reject
Reaganism, those who defend it and those who stress the commonalities
between Reaganism and Trumpism — all tend to paint portraits of Mr.
Reagan that omit the very attributes that made him such a broadly
popular political figure: his pragmatism and nose for compromise.
