The Advantage for Mid-Lifers

About this ebook
What is “mid-life”? These days it’s hard to tell - even 40 is no longer classed as middle-aged any more. Perhaps middle age is that point in your life when you shift from seeing the future in terms of your potential and begin to see it in terms of your limitations. But isn’t every time of our life full of potential and opportunity? What if we could start seeing it that way and start living in that way?
Our world is changing - so fast, so furiously, so ferociously - that to stand out at work you need to change what you're doing. And quickly. To get ahead, you need soft skills. To stay ahead you need The Advantage.
This mini e-book is about having that advantage in mid-life. And those skills are at your fingertips and are in you. The Advantage is all about seven key skills: adaptability, critical thinking, empathy, integrity, being proactive, optimism and resilience.
This book focuses on sharpening two of those skills to help you gain that advantage and live a meaningful and happy life.
