Purposeful Retirement: How to Bring Happiness and Meaning to Your Retirement by Hyrum W. SmithMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
This audiobook was quite enjoyable. The author was one of the creators of the Franklin Day Planner, and you can tell he is experienced at teaching his system to large audiences – he has a way to tell anecdotes that seems well practiced. His stories are often personal, and they feel different than others, unique. And the sense of humor is not the antiseptic, safe-from-innuendo stuff that you almost always read in these kinds of books. This felt more like your uncle telling you what he’s learned in his retirement. And what made this even more interesting? The narrator reminded me of the pompous baritone of Ted Baxter, from Mary Tyler Moore. The personality in the writing was a great match for this. Very appropriate!
The advice tended to the get-off-your-ass variety. Wholly appropriate. Some help in finding purpose.
