Learning to Love Midlife

Learning to Love Midlife

A more recent book by Chip Conley, author most recently of Learning to Love Midlife : 12 Reasons Why Life Gets BETTER with Age examines and reframes some of the anxieties of the “midlife” period and helps us see the rich potential of the next segment of our adulthood.  Just because we see our youth passing us by, our productive life isn’t ending.  In fact, we are just getting started.  Chip Conley structures the book around his 12 reasons to love midlife, grouped into the physical, emotional, mental, vocational and spiritual aspects of life.  From the afterword:  “Midlife is not a crisis, it’s a crossroads.  But, unlike the well-marked and well-tended road that we have taken up to this point, midlife is bereft of road signs to help us navigate the next stretch….Most of us rely on speed bumps, or life circumstances … to slow us down so we can find out way.”  https://a.co/d/caUOMhD
