Fifty Shades of Growing Old

How to grow young in your second fifty years

by Lindsay Collier

‘Fifty Shades of Growing Old’ is really about ‘growing young’ in your second fifty years. Some say that growing old is like being on an airplane during a storm – once you’re aboard there is nothing you can do about it. Don’t believe that one bit – this book will prove this theory is wrong!

Formerly one of the foremost creative thinking experts in the US, Lindsey has now focused his skills on ideas to help people add zest to their lives. The ideas are useful for anyone but are spot on for seniors. Every senior needs this book!

The book can be read cover to cover or just opened to a random page for a thought or two to really make your day. Articles are short and to the point, often quite funny and entertaining, challenging, and always a bit different. You should have a copy of this book in your den or office, bedroom, bathroom, garage, car, basement, tool shed etc.

This is a part of Lindsay Collier’s “Live Your Life To the Fullest’ series which includes five other books that take a creative look at topics ranging from how to add humor to your life, how to live happily ever after, retirement, and surviving loss.  His popular “Growing Young Site’ blog has been a great source of creative ideas on how to stay young for those in their second fifty years.
