Publisher's Summary:
Are you hungry to grow in a new direction that you would love to go?
You are not alone. The Hunger to Grow dismisses the idea that we grow only through our work and our working years. It's time to retire the word "retired". Now it's "What's for dessert? I'm still hungry!"
Our dessert years begin when we start thinking about what we want in the second half of our lives. What we used to call a midlife crisis is just the realization that we want to turn the rest of our lives into the "yummy years" to allow our true passions to flow in search of new possibilities, new directions, and new challenges.
Now in his 70s, Peter Nicholls, Australia's People Gardener, is living proof of this book's powerful message. The Hunger to Grow will guide you through the transition from doing what you have to do to doing what you love to do. It will put you in the driver's seat of your future, empowering you to travel along the road of life your heart wants you to take.
The Hunger to Grow is the book of your future.
Members Reviews:
enjoyment matters! (Yes
Here's a down-to-earth, thorough guide to life transitions â emphasizing the work to "dessert years" (aka "retirement") in particular. Nicholls' thesis is so uplifting: enjoyment matters! (Yes, important to pursue important â to both us and others â goals, but having fun along the way replenishes us for the long-haul.) Nicholls points out that this is mankind's first experience with a large group of its citizens who have the luxury of leisure, but ironically may have difficulty enjoying it due to society's (including them, too!) exultation of work. He tosses in key concepts, as well: "positive surge," "switch off, switch on," "the real you," etc. His use of metaphors, along with a number of stories, enables us to visualize & remember major points. Suggest reading the book slowly to promote reflection and discussion with others. I promise you'll enjoy reading about enjoyment! And, hey, it's not all about planning & significant ideas; spontaneity also is encouraged.
A Positive Book with Energy!
I thought I hadn't received this book but then realised I had bought the Kindle edition! So sorry to everyone!
It is proving to be a really positive take on aging and the many benefits of growing older. So far I am really enjoying it and look forward to finishing it!
Special thanks to Peter who reminded me I bought the Kindle version!

This book is relevant to anyone who wants to embrace and create a life full of joy and meaning - no matter what age. It will both resonate and make you think. Read it!â
