Some key life decisions can have consequences that reverberate for years. And as you plan for retirement, there are big decisions ahead. What lessons can we learn from emerging research on how to make big decisions? Our guest, Dr. Adrian Camilleri, has engaged 657 Americans (from 20 to 80) on the ten big life decisions they’ve made so far.

Dr. Camilleri joins us from Australia.

On Big Career-Related Decisions

“One of the categories of big decisions that I focused on was career-related decisions. And so these involve questions like starting a new job, quitting a job, starting a business, closing down a business, joining the military, leaving the military, and then retirement. And so when important results from the interviews that I conducted was to look at how these different categories of big life decisions changed between those of different age groups… So leaving a position is also often a very big life decision…And obviously, these career-related decisions culminate in what’s usually the final career-related decision. Quite a number of people. who are about the age of 60, in my survey, had actually decided to retire. So retirement is certainly one of life’s biggest decisions for those who have managed to the point where they’re considering concluding their working career. More than half of those above the age of 60 years old had mentioned explicitly retirement as one of their biggest life decisions…So, when we look at lifestyle satisfaction, those who had already retired, who made that big decision, rated high on life satisfaction compared to those who are not [retired]. Now again, I put the sort of caveat on correlation data. So it could be that those who are already happy with their life are much more likely to retire. But there’s something to be looked at there because I have seen all the research suggesting that those who retire, many of them end up kind of feeling aimless and bored, even unhappy.”

On Self Development Decisions

“And what we see is that self-development type decisions don’t frequently make it onto the list of biggest life decisions, but they do tend to increase over time. So those who are in their sixties and seventies tend to be making more self-development decisions than those who are younger. And as I have mentioned, these self-development decisions tend to be ones that are evaluated more positively. Another follow-up question that I asked participants was how much time did you spend thinking about the decision before you made it? And there’s a nice contrast here between self-destructive and self-development decisions. So those who are making these self-destructive decisions such as committing a crime, taking drugs or something like that, were often thought about for seconds, perhaps minutes. In contrast, self-development decisions were often thought about for months, if not years. And we can think about these self-development decisions in terms of the more positive ones, like pursuing your religion or philosophy or engaging a new hobby or learning a new skill. But certainly reading through the stories that I was presented within these survey results, there were a number of people who were of age 60 and older, who had big life decisions related to seeking treatment. So whether they were deciding to get an operation or to do with cataracts, or arthritis or whether to get a knee replacement or not ”

Wise Quotes

On Career Changes Midlife

“This is my third recession and I’m only mid-career. So I, I very much see and understand what they’re going through. In fact, during the great recession, I helped teach at a program sponsored by New York’s Economic Development Council, in which we were taking people who lost not simply their job, but their career. Their entire career was getting displaced and not coming back post-recession. And New York said to us: We can’t have them sitting on the sidelines. These are capable people. How do we get them back to work? We looked at where the jobs were being created and the nature of those jobs, typically the people being displaced were coming from large corporations. So certainly coming out of 2008, 2009, lots of financial services, lots of big companies where you had multiple layers of bureaucracy. The jobs being created were in tiny companies in startups, in companies, less than 50 people, sometimes less than 20 people. The biggest change was trying to get people to see those jobs and feel comfortable in those jobs. It wasn’t so much a domain skill challenge. It’s not that. If you’ve been at big corporations, your whole life, look at these small companies and then recognize that cultural difference.

So if you’re in a big company of 30,000 people, you’re used to having the pre-meeting to plan the meeting, to coordinate the meeting for the meeting to discuss something. So at six months later, decisions made when you’re at these tiny 20 person startups, and you say, Hey, I have an idea. So you turn around in your chair and you’re talking to the boss, who’s sitting three feet from you in another chair because there are no offices here. And the boss says, okay, that sounds great. Well, that was the meeting. Those were the six months condensed to a six-minute conversation and understanding these cultural differences, how the businesses operate, that you can move fast and break things, which is very different from these big traditional corporations. That was the biggest challenge. And so to people who are saying, I need to find something different. It’s not just the same job with a different company. Look at different types of companies and understand it’s not just going to be the mechanics of the role, but understand the cultural differences. And if you can set yourself up to succeed in that, both recognizing how you’ll operate, but also how you sell yourself into working in those networks, in those types of organizations and cultures, then you can have a very successful career and find a lot of options.”

On Career Planning

“Eisenhower famously said: Plans are worthless, but planning is everything. And we have to recognize a career plan is not simply a plan you make and now you’re stuck to it. Forevermore, all of us in our jobs have been planning. If you think about any project you’ve worked on, could you ever have gone to your boss and said, Hey, listen, boss, I know we’re going to work on this for six months. We’re not going to bother with a project plan. We’re just going to kind of wing it. That sounds good to you because your boss is going to say No way! You have to create a plan. I want to know where this is going. What are the risks? What are the opportunities? How might this unfold? Now we also know when you’re doing this six-month project or a year-long or however long project, it’s never going to work exactly.

As you expected, things go over budget over time. Something was harder. Occasionally something’s easier. But when you have that plan, you can start to say, Well, we’re going to now vary the plan. We’re going to update the plan. We’re off the plan. But maybe that’s a good thing because we realize that plan was wrong. But you created that plan in the first place. Your career is a lot bigger than a six-month project. You need to create that plan, but much like the plans, we have for our projects, you’re not set in stone. If it’s not working, you can throw it out. You can create a new plan and the act of planning itself of thinking about what are the risks, what are the opportunities? Where are the things I need to focus on? Where are the areas that are less important now, as things change now, as things come up, as you’ve thought through it.”

On Networking

“You want a large network. You also like a broad network, too many people think, well, I’m in Medicine. So I only need to know people in Medicine. In fact, you want to meet people in other areas because the diversity, it adds to your network leads to new opportunities that you might not have gotten otherwise. Because remember when you’re connected to someone you’re connected to everyone they know. And you never know when you need to get into a new area where you don’t have yourself, a deep bench, or maybe it just turns out this person, their cousin happens to also be in medicine and it circles back to how it can help you.

But the biggest mistake people make is they just think, Well, I’m just going to add connections and they don’t foster that relationship. I always talk about how adding someone on LinkedIn and saying that they are now in your network. It’s like swiping right on Tinder and saying this person’s now your significant other. We all know you can’t just swipe right. And say, now I have a girlfriend, now I have a wife, right? You have to build that relationship. And the same is true for our professional relationships. So that instant connection that gang, the business card or adding on LinkedIn, that’s step one. That’s a swipe, right? What you want to do is invest in building that relationship. Now you may not have done that in the past, but you can start doing that today. And it doesn’t take that long. Even a few months of starting to build up that relationship.

Now that network is warmed up. So when you need help down the road, whether finding a job, finding a candidate, finding a supplier, a partner, just getting information, that network has been warmed up and now you can go to it. And you’re not reaching out to someone you haven’t talked to in 20 years. It’s someone you last spoke to three months ago. So start today, reach back out to people. It’s a great time. Now, as we’re getting out of the pandemic, reach out and say, Hey, glad we’re getting through this. How are you doing? What’s coming up for you? How can I be of help? And even if you’re not working, even if you don’t have a job, we can all be of help to other people. So reach out connect, say, how have you been? What are you looking forward to? How can I be helpful to you and warm up those networks?”

Wise Quotes

On Purpose & Meaning in Retirement

“People who are successful in retirement have a lot of meaning and purpose. They don’t just stop cold turkey. Most of them have other ideas or pursuits, whether it’s hobbies, businesses, charitable giving, charitable time, and spending time with their grandchildren in a productive way. I feel like the people who actually retire to something rather than retire from something are much more successful. It’s one thing to say, I’m going to stop work at age 60. It’s another thing to say between age 60 and 70 here are my 10 big goals or the big things on my bucket list that I really want to focus on. And I’ve seen people really, really thrive after they stopped their primary career and even explore new opportunities that they never thought they could do, like starting a business with a grandson or learning how to do something new, like getting into cycling or getting into art or traveling with your family. There are so many things that I’ve seen people do in retirement. That shows me that you really need to have a game plan. It’s it could be a 10,000 days journey. And to, to just simply think, well, I don’t have to do anything anymore, you’re kind of setting yourself up for failure.”

On Priorities in Retirement

“I think people, once they get to retirement, they realize that there were a lot of things they weren’t doing often enough, like self-care and taking care of their health. I’ve seen many people just work themselves so hard, work so many hours, with so much extra stress, that they’re finally able to really take better care of themselves. And relax and do things that are more fulfilling than doing something just for a paycheck. It’s definitely on the unfortunate side, but I think the healthcare costs are typically a negative surprise. It costs more than they expect on the positive side. And I feel like people are busier than they would ever have dreamed of. My parents, when I talk to them, they have a full schedule. And to me it’s sometimes it’s like Well, how do you have a full schedule? You’re totally retired. But when you go through their activity list on their calendar, they’ve got so many things that they’ve planned and committed. And they’re excited about that. They’re just doing a lot more than they ever thought they would.”

On An Exit Strategy for Entrepreneurs

“I think entrepreneurs often assume that there’ll be able to work until they are done and just easily decide and pick up and leave. But most entrepreneurs actually don’t make it to that point. There could be many reasons. It could be something that happens in their industry. If you look at COVID, many businesses have adjusted or had to be closed because of the extended restrictions on the ability to stay open. So there are a lot of things that people just don’t realize it’s not as cut and dry when your paycheck depends on you. So you’ve got to really have a plan, not only for your business and your business succession or your exit strategy but also personally, when you’re going to stop working and begin to live a retired lifestyle if you will, it’s a lot of different things to plan for. If you’re an entrepreneur, I’d say my advice for those crafting an exit strategy is to engage with professionals who have helped others transition before. So there’s no reason to try to do everything by yourself, definitely work with a team of professionals who’ve helped other people execute their own exit strategies, because there are a lot of things you don’t think of – especially if it’s your first time selling a business or retiring. There’s going to be a lot of things that come up that you just hadn’t prepared for. And if you can seek great professional counsel beforehand, you’ll have more of a sense and you’ll have more confidence as you’re making those big decisions.”

Wise Quotes

On Reinvention

“Realize that you don’t reinvent yourself by snapping your fingers and going, I’m going to reinvent. It’s actually a time-consuming process. It’s not just a straight upward trajectory. And in the process of writing my book, I interviewed many, many people who had successfully reinvented and rebranded themselves. And based on that, I developed a framework that I call my seven principles. And that includes everything from having a Growth Mindset, to being uncomfortable, a willingness to learn, finding your purpose, storytelling, personal branding, and social media and mentoring. And by following those steps, you can truly have a successful reinvention and rebranding.”

On Why You Shouldn’t Go it Alone

“One is that if you’re stuck like that, it’s often helpful. When I actually did this myself to hire a coach, somebody who can, I like to say, give you a Swift kick on the behind so that you’re able to start checking yourself a little bit and making some changes. If you don’t want to hire a coach, another thing is to be part of a support group where you’re with other people who are contending with some of the same challenges you are, and you can mutually help each other. Also doing some volunteer work. Often times you start doing something and that ends up changing you. What psychologists and researchers have found is that just sitting on the couch and musing about your life and ruminating and wondering What can I do? What did I do wrong? doesn’t get you anywhere. You need to take action.”

On Storytelling

“Storytelling is a powerful tool. If it’s done correctly, it’s another way of getting people to engage with you. If you simply reel off some facts, most of the time, the facts are not interesting. But if you weave together your life story into a story that has a natural arc to it, people are going to want to engage with you. That’s why we love to read books. We love to read especially non-fiction books that are written more like fiction. We love movies because they all have a natural story arc. And in this case, you’re the hero of your story.”
