Roar

Into the Second Half of Your Life (Before It’s Too Late)

De: Michael Clinton

Narrado por: Michael Clinton, Gibson Frazier

This “inspiring reminder that it is never too late to reinvent yourself” (Nina García, editor-in-chief, Elle) shows you how to make second half of your life happy and productive—whether or not retirement is in your future plans.

We are living in a time when everyone is constantly reassessing what is next for them. In the mid-career group, people who have spent years working are now seeing their industry dramatically evolve and are facing the question: “What does that mean for me in the next twenty years?” At the same time, the post-career population is also going through massive change and dealing with the fact that many of them are not prepared financially, logistically, or emotionally for the next phase of their lives. And while we may want to retire, most of us don’t want to do nothing.

With expert insight and approachable techniques, Roar helps you identify fresh goals and take meaningful action to achieve a purposeful life. Featuring a unique and dynamic 4-part process, Roar shows you how to:

-Reimagine yourself
-Own who you are
-Act on what’s next
-Reassess your relationships

Transformative and invigorating, “you couldn’t pick a better roadmap for your next chapter than Roar. It teach[es] you how to approach the future not with fear or worry, but with passion and purpose” (Michael Sebastian, editor-in-chief, Esquire).

Interesting Book

I enjoyed this book. I had several take-away, like books that were mentioned. I recommended it to others already.

Roarrrrrr

I love the perspective it gave me, from other’s people point of view. Got a lot of ideas as to what my next 30 years will look like.

Illuminating take on older adulthood

I am a young retiree and I appreciate the ideas and advice presented here. This is a good read and good advice for anyone serious about living their best life.

Great book

This book was enlightening! I can’t wait to sit down and write my goals and dreams. I’m encouraged to dream and make it happen! Great read or should I say listen!!

Inspiring and Practical!

I enjoyed the large amount and wide variety of personal examples. It removes your ability to say “I can’t do that” or I’m too old”.

Wonderful resource for the wonderfully resourced

It’s hard to feel sorry for the rich, but the author prevails anyway in this Boomer convention elitism.

Paula

Like it looked to people rediscovering themselves past 60 in a career and how perspectives in that regards needs to change.

Inspiration done very well!

This book is exactly what I had needed to feel encouraged along my path. It’s extremely validating and the examples of people who have done incredible things after 50, who’ll surely give you the courage to find your own way. While listening, I had the thought, this is the gift I give all my friends turning 50!
