This page is to make things as easy as possible… sort of like “one-stop shopping” or one-click access to all of my past paulfox.blog and Music in a Minuet blog-posts, PMEA News articles, and other resources for promoting a happy, healthy, and meaningful transition to and realization of full retirement from music teaching.
My own passage to “living the dream” has been very successful, and although I am still very active in the profession (conducting a community/youth orchestra, presenting at conferences and college music education classes, and serving as State Retired Member Coordinator and Chair of the Council for Teacher Training, Recruitment, and Retention for the Pennsylvania Music Educators Association), I now LOVE how retirement has changed my life… more personal reflection, retooling and self-reinvention of my skills/interests, creation of new bucket lists and short to long term goals, and spending more TIME doing what I like best… writing, making music, volunteering, and walking my dogs!
From time to time, this page will be updated to include the latest “finds” and new releases. If desired, a printer-friendly copy is available here: ultimate retiree resource guide. (Please let me know if any of the online links go inactive. Send an email message to paulkfox.usc@gmail.com.)
Feel free to share your own stories, readings, tips, or research on this life-changing passage of “Crossing the Rubicon” to retirement. Send to the above email. Thanks!
