If you have NO IDEA what you are going to do with the second half of your life, then this book might be a good resource for you to making plans and changing your attitude.

Otherwise, if you are like me, and have given some thought on how to be productive in your later years, skip this very basic take on life planning for midlife and read my blog instead, www.TheMidLifeGuru.com

I've been a big fan of the Eyre's parenting books, but this one is just for me. The practical suggestions and real-life examples show that getting older can be joyful and exciting. Let the adventure begin!
