I think midlife is really such a mindset -- it can appear as a crisis, but realizing you have the control to live life differently and <em>consciously</em> is incredibly powerful. You inspired me to write a blog post about it! http://bizzantik.com/2010/03/01/what-is-midlife/ Thanks for writing! Lynn,

I think we've all heard the comment "60 is the new 40". Being only a year away from 60 myself, and contemplating my experience of my own parents when they were 60. . I think there is a distinct difference-some better- some not as good. These days who has the TIME or the MONEY to have a Mid Life Crisis?! That only puts you further behind! I have a low-budget crisis - just have a good cry every now and then and get on with it! The good difference in our life today and that of my folks as they adjusted to aging- is that people have the OPPORTUNITY to be much more connected. You can share thoughts and feelings without revealing yourself at all if you want to- and I think having that outlet is going to change the way future generations age and react to aging as well. As the defining line of mid-life slips I think the concept and content of a mid-life crisis will evolve as well. The most common crisis we see in our practice every day is related to not planning sufficiently for a LONGER life. Too much life left at the end of the money! But fortunately there are some solutions. These days I find myself thinking what IS midlife ??? I think we’ve all heard the comment “60 is the new 40″.
