「若當時的我有意識到書中所謂『人生的季節』,以及其必然伴隨的有效期限,
我一定會用全然不同的方法面對一次次的迷你退休。」
──吉姆.柯林斯,暢銷書《簡單致富》作者
為什麼我們要工作 40 年才退休一次?
人生中有無數美好時刻值得體驗,如果我們能偶爾「暫停」,專注於重要的事情上,如:家人、朋友、冒險、修復身心、嗜好,以及實現即將過期的夢想呢?如果有一種方法,不僅能避免因暫停工作而對個人財務和職涯發展造成損失,還能帶來深遠的益處,那該有多好?
本書企圖打破傳統的退休模式,詳盡分享如何在職涯中,策略性的間歇休息、成長與探索人生,並透過聰明的財務管理來戰勝恐懼,在滿血回歸後再創高峰。作者已實現多次的「迷你退休」,不僅找到工作與生活的平衡,也擁有了更具意義的人生。
▋ 四大步驟開啟迷你退休旅程,將夢想化為具體行動──
✧ 夢想實踐:意識到人生的「季節性」,確立核心目標、排序夢想清單。
✧ 職涯規畫:優雅談判、訴說正面故事,更有競爭力的重返職場。
✧ 財務梳理:追蹤開支、掌握預算、填滿「五個水桶」。
✧ 旅程導航:應對現實挑戰,設立情緒與時間界線、定期微調計畫。

Why do we have to work for 40 years and only retire once? Why can’t we take occasional career breaks to focus on the other areas of life that matter: family, friends, adventure, rest, hobbies, our health, and achieving long-held dreams? And what if there was a way of doing so that not only avoided financial or career downsides – but brought profound upsides?
Author Jillian Johnsrud has walked the walk – taking numerous mini retirements that have unlocked work-life balance and a more purposeful life, while also helping rather than hindering her career thanks to simple steps and practical principles that anyone can follow.
She has coached hundreds of people to achieve the same, and in Retire Often she shares everything you need to make the most of every season of life by retiring not once – but often.
Accompanied by a thoughtful foreword from author JL Collins, The Simple Path to Wealth, this book is packed with personal anecdotes, applicable advice, and handy tips, making it a must-buy manual for anyone seeking more freedom and balance in their lives.
