The 77 million or so baby boomers in the U.S. are expected to reinvent "retirement" as we enter what has been called the “third age”-- the years between 60 and 90. In their book The Power Years, Dychtwald and Kadlec challenge those of us in our forties, fifties and sixties to make the years ahead "the best years of our life". Is your parachute in order? Do you know exactly where you want to land?
According to Dychtwald and Kadlec, “We will either be remembered as history’s largest generation or its greatest. The choice is ours.” What do you want to learn? What do you want to let go of? It is estimated that half of all boomers will need to work longer than anticipated... Now is the time to discover how you want to spend the second half of your life--and act on it!
How will you fully honor all that you have become?
