About this ebook

Bring a renewed sense of purpose to the next chapter of your life with the New York Times bestselling author’s guide to thriving in retirement. 
 
Many people see their later years as a time to endure rather than as an exciting opportunity. Yet research and common sense confirm that people who embrace these years with energy and gusto consistently find them to be rich and rewarding. In Refire! Don't Retire, Ken Blanchard and Morton Shaevitz offer inspiring insight and thought-provoking questions to help people make the rest of their lives the best of their lives. 
 
In the trademark Ken Blanchard style, the authors tell the compelling story of Larry and Janice Sparks, who discover how to see each day as an opportunity to enhance their relationships, stimulate their minds, revitalize their bodies, and grow spiritually. As they learn to be open to new experiences, Larry and Janice rekindle passion in every area of their lives.
 
Readers will find humor, practical information, and profound wisdom in Refire! Don't Retire. Best of all, they will be inspired to make all the years ahead truly worth living.

Ratings and reviews

Want to save money? I'll recap the entire book in three words. ..Try Something New. There you go. You've just read the book and saved money and time! As a bonus is written so a 12 year old can understand it. My apologies to all 12 year olds. Sample. .. "Let's go get some Hungarian food. You know I don't like Hungarian food! Have you ever tried Hungarian food? Hey! I really do like Hungarian food! Thanks for making me try Hungarian food!" Yeah it's really that bad.
