In my case it had little impact.

For me, my Retirement brought about not only MORE work (including Volunteer), but also NEW opportunities to learn, experience, and get to do things I never got a chance to do when I was younger. In some ways, my productivity has increased, due to the combination with Creativity and the ability to now CHOOSE what I wish to do. I am grateful for my retirement, and hope that in the next decade or so that I will be able to enjoy life a bit also, something I did not do when I was putting myself through college, supporting my family (and became a single parent with an ex who doesn't pay child support). NOW ... it is MY TIME -- my time to enjoy, my time to learn new skills, my time to explore my talents, find new interests, and get creative. Am I less productive now -- NO!

The answer to your question depends on what you call productivity. Most retirees we know are busier than ever. Many do volunteer work, others are very involved with their families either helping with grandchildren or taking care of their own parents or friends who need some help at this time. Our biggest problem with retirement has been finding enough time to do all that is necessary and having a little for R&R

Be iterested in the things you always wanted to do , but never could. There is impact to every change in direction, so try to stay as close to the direction you chose in life. Take it from Dinah Shor and Pat Boone--"See the USA in your chevrolet " The people you meet and befriend will be a big part of your good influence and productivity!
