Week 16: Going For Greatness, Epilogue and Pulling It All Together

Congratulations to all of you who have completed Chapter 11 and are ready for our final chapter! This is our last official week together, but the website will remain open for anyone who wishes to continue discussing any of the exercises or chapters. If you fell behind, why not finish? You will have plenty of company.

I (Tammy) won’t be checking for comments daily after Wednesday, but I will try to answer as many as I can. I hope you will answer each other’s comments, too. All of the book club remains available to you through March 26, 2026.

Registration is open for our next book club, reading I Could Do Anything If I Only Knew What It Was. If you have finished It’s Only Too Late If You Don’t Start Now, I hope you will join me.

This week, we will finish up our reading of It’s Only Too Late If You Don’t Start Now: How to Create Your Second Life at Any Age by reading the 16 pages of Chapter 12: Going for Greatness and the brief Epilogue that takes us back to the questions we answered in Chapter 1. Then it is time to sum up and share what we’ve all learned from our reading and all the exercises.
