The #1 New York Times Bestseller From the bestselling author and
columnist behind The Atlantic's popular "How to Build a Life"
series, a guide to transforming the life changes we fear into a
source of strength. In the first half of life, ambitious strivers
embrace a simple formula for success in work and life: focus
single-mindedly, work tirelessly, sacrifice personally, and climb
the ladder relentlessly. It works. Until it doesn't. It turns out
the second half of life is governed by different rules. In middle
age, many strivers begin to find success coming harder and harder,
rewards less satisfying, and family relationships withering. In
response, they do what strivers always do: they double down on work
in an attempt to outrun decline and weakness, and deny the changes
that are becoming more and more obvious. The result is often anger,
fear, and disappointment at a time in life that they imagined would
be full of joy, fulfillment, and pride. It doesn't have to be that
way. In From Strength to Strength, happiness expert and bestselling
author Arthur C. Brooks reveals a path to beating the "striver's
curse." Drawing on science, classical philosophy, theology, and
history, he shares counterintuitive strategies for releasing old
habits and forming new life practices, showing you how to: - Kick
the habits of workaholism, success addiction, and
self-objectification - Meditate on death-in order to beat fear and
live well - Start a spiritual adventure - Embrace weakness in a way
that turns it into strength. Change in your life is inevitable, but
suffering is not. From Strength to Strength shows you how to accept
the gifts of the second half of life with grace, joy, and ever
deepening purpose.

what it used to be. Then he provides a set of tools, tips, and
