What will your 100-year life look like? A new edition of the international bestseller, featuring a new preface 'Brilliant, timely, original, well written and utterly terrifying' Niall Ferguson Does the thought of working for 60 or 70 years fill you with dread? Or can you see the potential for a more stimulating future as a result of having so much extra time? Many of us have been raised on the traditional notion of a three-stage approach to our working lives: education, followed by work and then retirement. But this well-established pathway is already beginning to collapse – life expectancy is rising, final-salary pensions are vanishing, and increasing numbers of people are juggling multiple careers. Whether you are 18, 45 or 60, you will need to do things very differently from previous generations and learn to structure your life in completely new ways. The 100-Year Life is here to help. Drawing on the unique pairing of their experience in psychology and economics, Lynda Gratton and Andrew J. Scott offer a broad-ranging analysis as well as a raft of solutions, showing how to rethink your finances, your education, your career and your relationships and create a fulfilling 100-year life. · How can you fashion a career and life path that defines you and your values and creates a shifting balance between work and leisure? · What are the most effective ways of boosting your physical and mental health over a longer and more dynamic lifespan? · How can you make the most of your intangible assets – such as family and friends – as you build a productive, longer life? · In a multiple-stage life how can you learn to make the transitions that will be so crucial and experiment with new ways of living, working and learning? Shortlisted for the FT/McKinsey Business Book of the Year Award and featuring a new preface, The 100-Year Life is a wake-up call that describes what to expect and considers the choices and options that you will face. It is also fundamentally a call to action for individuals, politicians, firms and governments and offers the clearest demonstration that a 100-year life can be a wonderful and inspiring one.

In this tech era, we are living a very fast moving life where most of us are living with a perception in our mind that life has no meaning after retirement or after attaining the age of sixties or seventies. Or in simple words we believe that there is no enjoyment or very minimal in "life after sixties or seventies".How has this perception made way in our mind? This perception has not taken place in our mind in a day or a month. This perception is an adaptation of an environment / happenings around us for a long time and our mind has gradually accepted and adapted to that as we have seen elders from our family and society like this. But why our elders are not able to enjoy the life after sixties or seventies? Are they not willing to enjoy life? They are. But they can't. But why?Because they have also lived life at their young age as you are living today at a young age. Yes, you heard it right. They too were busy in their work only, not able to manage time for their health and preferred the medicines to have a short term on the spot relief from the pain / disease to resume their work. And now they have ample time and money but can't enjoy that money. Then what was the purpose of being busy and huge earning at that young age? Their time and money have meaning only if they can enjoy that money now till the age of around100 years or more. If you like to live on the same pattern as your elders have lived, then you are on the right track of wasting your time on unproductive habits. But if you want to live life with good health to earn more at a young age and want to enjoy life after sixties or seventies with that money up to the age of around 100 years or more, then you need to change the pattern of your life. Don't worry, you don't need to do anything rigorous or tiring and also you don't need to spend a lot of money on buying equipment / machines etc. This book is here to help you in guiding how to get rid of that long adapted perception that life after sixties or seventies has no meaning or life up to the age of 100 years is cruse.The main focus of this book is:1.To change your perception about life after sixties or seventies2.To bring you out from forced living on medicines3.To change life patterns to have a life free from stress and doctors4.To have mindfulness in your life for self-management and disciplineTo live a healthy life, you need to come out from wrong habits of wasting your time on unproductive things.

Netflix’s series adaptation of One Hundred Years of Solitude premieres December 11, 2024! One of the twentieth century’s enduring works, One Hundred Years of Solitude is a widely beloved and acclaimed novel known throughout the world and the ultimate achievement in a Nobel Prize–winning career. The novel tells the story of the rise and fall of the mythical town of Macondo through the history of the Buendía family. Rich and brilliant, it is a chronicle of life, death, and the tragicomedy of humankind. In the beautiful, ridiculous, and tawdry story of the Buendía family, one sees all of humanity, just as in the history, myths, growth, and decay of Macondo, one sees all of Latin America. Love and lust, war and revolution, riches and poverty, youth and senility, the variety of life, the endlessness of death, the search for peace and truth—these universal themes dominate the novel. Alternately reverential and comical, One Hundred Years of Solitude weaves the political, personal, and spiritual to bring a new consciousness to storytelling. Translated into dozens of languages, this stunning work is no less than an account of the history of the human race.
