Wise Up! How to be fearless and fufilled in midlife

Wise Up: How to be fearless and fulfilled in midlife is a self-help book for people in midlife - the 40 to 60-year-old age group. It focuses on attitude - you're only as old as you think. Lindsey Dawson contends that the way we want to be through midlife is: * Fearless - includes tales of people who've overcome insecurities and self-doubt to find new strength * Fulfilled - the search for life purpose and how people are actually doing it * Relevant - acknowledging what you do know as well as learning new things * Sexy - midlifers' experiences of sex reveal its affirming power, and also to reassure that going without is OK too * Wise - the compensations of swapping youth for the rewards of becoming a wise old head or authority figure * Organised - getting your financial, legal and other nitty-gritty things in order * Fit - the plusses that come from toning up, laughing much and feeling good about yourself * Content - finding the place where you can say to yourself that life is really good
