Finding Success, Happiness, & Fulfillment in the 2nd Half of Life

Are you going through a time in your life where you’re going through uncertainty, doubt, fear, frustration, a possible “mid-life crisis,” or you’re just in a gap going from one season to another, and you’re searching for more happiness, satisfaction, and fulfillment…but you’re not “there” yet? If so, I have one for you today that is going to speak directly to your heart & soul. Trust me on this one!

Meet Arthur C. Brooks. He’s a Harvard professor on happiness and leadership. He’s an author of 12 books, including his latest which is also a #1 New York Times Best-Seller. He’s a social scientist who has led one of America’s largest “think tanks” for a decade before making a huge leap of faith in his 50s. He’s also one deep dude who just happens to be a guest on the IMPACT SHOW today. Buckle up as this one is going to hit you deep.

Specifically, here is what Arthur and I talk about:

  • Why does it seem so many people in their 40’s, 50’s, and 60’s are “struggling” today, but no one wants to talk about it?
  • Why being a “success addict” is a dangerous thing, and what to do about it.
  • Why and when does professional decline happen and how can you prevent it from being a source of frustration, loneliness, or even emptiness.
  • The 2 types of intelligence that occur in life that are the secret to you finding your happiness & fulfillment, especially in the “2nd Curve” of life.
  • Using the science of ‘satisfaction’ to find more fulfillment in life.
  • Arthur’s pillars and principles of life to find even more happiness, satisfaction, and fulfillment in life.
  • Understanding how and why faith rises with age.
  • How to best turn weakness into strengths.
  • How to turn a midlife transition from crisis to opportunity.
  • Why the 2nd-Half of Life can truly be your best half of life and how to get to that 2nd-curve more successfully.
  • Arthur’s best practices, writing routine, and why he now attends Mass every day after he exercises and before he writes.

Yes, we cover ALL that and more on today’s epic IMPACT Show. After listening to his book on Audible and then reading the hard cover, I couldn’t wait for this conversation, and it did NOT disappoint.
