For seniors, making the willing choice to “Rightsize” their lives can be a challenge. Done smartly, though, the outcome can be deeply rewarding. The journey begins with a clear vision of what an ideal lifestyle looks like and then, while keeping that goal in focus, taking intelligent steps forward. Using his personal experience, the author describes how he and his wife - both in their seventies - sold their home, moved to an "Over-55" apartment community, got rid of a lot of accumulated "stuff," and fashioned a lifestyle of reduced stress and increased personal contentment. This book discusses steps for a comfortable relocation, strategies for letting go of "stuff," ways to manage the stress of a major lifestyle change, and making wise choices about what is important in life.
