Reimagine Aging with Purpose and Engagement

"In this 2023 conversation with Justine Willis Toms, Leider and Shapiro suggest there is a difference between growing old and merely getting old. They write: “We’re not denying time advances, but we are advocating to reimagine old age and the earlier we begin, the better. We need new models and a new story of what it means to be old because the anti-aging mindset is pervasive in Western culture.' Lieder and Shapiro point out that with each passing moment, we’re further from birth, and closer to death, and there’s nothing we can do about that. But they have good news. Aging doesn’t have to be passive; it can be an active process. Richard J. Leider is the founder of Inventure -The Purpose Company, whose mission is to help people “unlock the power of purpose.' He is the author of many books including: The Power of Purpose: Find Meaning, Live Longer, Better (Berrett-Koehler Publishing 2016) David A Shapiro is a philosopher, educator, and tenured philosophy professor at Cascadia College in Seattle. Leider and Shapiro are the co-authors of many books considered classics in the personal growth field. They include: - Repacking Your Bags and The Power of Purpose (Mjf Books 1996) - Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old? The Path of Purposeful Aging.

Who Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old?: The Path of Purposeful Aging

"Grow old on purpose. This book invites readers to navigate a purposeful path from adulthood to elderhood with choice, curiosity, and courage. None of us know for sure what will happen as we age. What Richard J. Leider and David A. Shapiro do know, however, is that a purposeful mindset is a fundamental component of a life well-lived. What Do You Want to Be When You Grow Old? invites readers into the experience of two lifelong friends taking on the courageous conversation of aging well with honesty and purpose. In the first half of the book, readers are introduced to a framework for looking back over their lives and examining how they've arrived at the place they have. In the second half, readers are invited to look forward to purposeful aging with courage, compassion, and curiosity. In their bestseller Repacking Your Bags, Leider and Shapiro defined the good life as 'living in the place you belong, with people you love, doing the right work, on purpose.' This book argues that aging well can be similarly defined as 'aging in the place you belong, with people you love, doing the right 'work,' on purpose.'"

You're Not Much Use to Anyone: A Novel

"David is a freshly minted NYU grad who’s working a not-quite-entry-level job, falling in love, and telling his parents he’s studying for the LSAT. He starts a Tumblr blog, typing out posts on his BlackBerry under his desk—a blog that becomes wildly popular and brings him to the attention of major media (The New York Times) as well as the White House. But his outward fame doesn’t quell his confusion about the world and his direction in it. This semiautobiographical debut is a coming-of-age story perfect for our time. In A Sense of Direction author Gideon Lewis-Kraus’s words, “If Tao Lin had been born to Gary Shteyngart’s parents and spent his early twenties slaving for pageviews at NewYorker.com, he would have written something like this, the Bright Lights, Big City of the click-here-now generation.”"
