About this ebook

Most people dread growing old. Some even fear it. We’ve all witnessed the drastic measures many have taken to slow (or at least camouflage) the effects of aging. And we’ve seen the tragic results.

In Happy on the Homestretch, Pat Williams — a man who ran 58 marathons after the age of 55 — offers a completely different way to think our later years. Instead of fighting tooth and nail to resist them, we should embrace them. We should welcome them with open arms and pursue happiness with the same enthusiasm (if not the same energy) that characterized our youth. He calls it “giving Father Time a hard time.”

Here you will find 30 tips for doing just that. No magic, no hocus - pocus, no surgical alterations, no pie-in-the-sky promises, just simple, practical ideas in the areas of attitude, health, relationships, work, and spirituality that will help you make your later years your greater years.

Happy on the Homestretch is also a great tool for anyone concerned about his or her legacy. The ideas in this book will guide the reader through the critical steps that are needed to reconcile lingering conflicts, reconnect with old friends, and leave behind value for future generations.
