But there are some things about social media that I miss. My experience without social media has been much the same. But now that I'm away from social media, I've found myself learning about current events much later than everybody else. Daily interactions with my social media friendsMost of us have acquaintances that we connect with on social media and not anywhere else. I still plan to stay off of social media for another week, and I'm not counting down the days.

Five days ago, I did something revolutionary for a Gen Zer: I deleted all the social media apps from my phone. Social media dependency is a real problem, recent data shows. So much of my free time throughout the day was consumed by mindless scrolling on the social media platform X and Instagram. Disconnecting allows time for a self-auditGoing on a 30-day silent retreat is a much greater challenge than ditching social media for a few days. One commonality between social media detoxes and silent retreats is that Jerjian and Liu also weren't able to access social media during the retreats — where the use of phones wasn't allowed outside of emergencies.

In my early 50s, I was forced to retire early after a near-death experience to take care of my health. But at 62, after feeling bored, restless and stuck, I un-retired and started a coaching company to help people achieve a more fulfilling retirement than I did. Here are four myths about retirement that more people need to talk about:Myth #1: Life follows a linear path. Don't wait for retirement to live the life you want. Benedictine monks are encouraged to "keep death daily before your eyes," so that they can live life more fully and in a detached manner.

Here's what this tells us: The biggest retirement challenge that no one talks about, in my experience, is finding purpose. People often confuse retirement savings with retirement planning. Google the words "retirement planning" and you'll mostly see, for pages and pages, savings-and pension-related content. Finding purpose leads to a more meaningful, healthier lifeIn the same survey, I asked how people thought they might solve their challenges. Finding purpose can also help retirees find new side hustle opportunities that bring in income, helping to ease financial concerns.
