About the Book

'Fifty Shades of Growing Old' is really all about 'Growing Young' in your second fifty years. Lindsay Collier's popular "Growing Young Site' blog has been a great source of creative ideas on how to stay young for those in their second fifty years for several years, and this book contains some of the best articles from this site. Some say that growing old is like being on an airplane during a storm - once you're aboard there is nothing you can do about it. Don't believe that one bit - these books will prove this theory is wrong! Lindsay was formerly one of the foremost creative thinking experts in the US and has now focused his skills on ideas to help people add zest to their lives. The ideas are useful for anyone but are spot on for seniors. Every senior needs this book! The book can be read cover to cover or just opened to a random page for a thought or two to really make your day. Articles are short and to the point, often quite funny and entertaining, challenging, and always a bit different. You should have a copy of this book in your den or office, bedroom, bathroom, garage, car, basement, tool shed etc. This is a part of Lindsay Collier's "Live Your Life To the Fullest' series which includes 5 other books that take a creative look at topics ranging from how to add humor to your life, how to live happily ever after, retirement, and surviving loss. Please enjoy!
About the Author: Lindsay was born and brought up in the Boston area. After graduating from Northeastern University with a BS in Mechanical Engineering he served as a Captain in the US Army Corps of Engineers. Following that he went to work for Eastman Kodak Company in Rochester, NY which he called home for most of his life. He was Kodak's Technology Leader for Creativity, Innovation, and Strategic Exploration and trained hundreds in creative thinking processes and led many ideation sessions to help unleash the creativity of Kodakers. His interest in the connection between humor and work resulted in the development of the first corporate humor room. He took an early retirement after 25 years to begin a career as a writer and speaker. Lindsay's first book, The Whack-A-Mole Theory was quite popular and also was translated to Japanese. He has been featured as a keynote speaker for dozens of corporations and organizations worldwide (including 4 tours of South Africa) on the topic of creativity, innovation, and humor in the workplace. He also published a book called Get Out of Your Thinking Box; 365 Things You Can Do to Brighten Your Life and Enhance Your Creativity during this period. After losing his first wife of 40 years, Jan, to ovarian cancer in 2000 he put his writing skills to work on his book, Surviving the Loss of Your Loved One; Jan's Rainbow. This book, along with his presentations on the topic, has helped hundreds of people deal with loss in their lives. In 2005 Lindsay and his second wife, Jean, moved to The Villages, Florida. In 2014 he really caught the "writing bug". He published a book on organizational creativity, innovation, and change called Organizational Mental Floss; How to Squeeze Your Organization's Thinking Juices. That was followed by Quotations to Tickle Your Brain, a book where he shares some great quotes focusing on creative thinking and Organizational Braindroppings; Musings on Breakthrough and Change. In late 2014 he wrote How to Live Happily Ever After; 12 Things You Can Do to Live Forever, and Living Your Retirement Dreams and Growing Young in the Villages; Florida's Friendliest and Healthiest Hometown. His latest books, Fifty Shades of Growing Old, Add Humor to Your Life; Add Life to Your Humor and The Funniest Book You Will Ever Read, promise to be a best-sellers on this topic. Lindsay's presentations and classes have consistently received great reviews. They are always fast-moving, full of creative ideas, and lots of fun!
