  • Finishing Well

    What  People Who Really Live Do Differently!

    It’s never too late (or too early) to begin finishing well! In a world where success often fades with time, wouldn’t you like to embark on a path that leads to lasting significance? Imagine a life where every moment counts, where your work carries eternal purpose and meaning until the day you take your final breath. Author Bob Buford, driven by the wisdom found in the depths of biblical teachings, presents to you “Finishing Well,” a groundbreaking book that illuminates the way to a rich and purposeful future.

    Buford, a visionary leader, has dined with “some of the smartest people on the planet” who have successfully transitioned from mere success to profound significance. Join the likes of Peter Drucker, Jim Collins, Dr. Kenneth Cooper, George Gallup, Howard Hendricks, Roger Staubach, and Bill Pollard as they divulge their secrets to a life that goes beyond the ordinary. Through their inspiring words, you will discover how you too can achieve remarkable feats, leaving a legacy that transcends time.

    Drawing from the pearls of wisdom shared by these accomplished individuals, Buford reminds us that the key to finishing well lies in embracing a forward-focused mindset. As he wisely asserts, “If people see their best years behind them, they’re probably not going to finish very well, because you can’t finish well when you’re going backwards.” It’s a call to action, urging you to leave behind the shackles of the past and step into a future brimming with possibilities.

    Retirement may mark the end of our professional careers, but it should never signal the end of our calling. Buford reminds us that our purpose transcends the confines of a job or a title. “We can retire from our jobs but we can never retire from our calling.” With “Finishing Well” as your guide, you will uncover the true meaning of work and its role in sustaining a life filled with purpose and fulfillment.

    The book delves into the profound truth that our earthly existence often falls short of its potential due to our limited understanding of the grandeur that awaits us. Buford echoes the sentiment, “We live pale and empty lives here on earth because we’re ignorant about what lies ahead, and we need to see that the dimensions of life are so much greater than what we can see, hear, and touch today.” Prepare to transcend the ordinary, as “Finishing Well” broadens your perspective and unveils the vast dimensions of life that await your exploration.

    Unlocking your potential for a meaningful existence demands a commitment to achievement and sustained growth. Buford highlights the habit of achievement as a defining characteristic of those who reach great heights. He shares, “People who achieve have a habit of achievement that begs for sustaining.” With “Finishing Well” as your ally, you will cultivate the tenacity and determination needed to surpass expectations, time and time again.

    Why settle for a life devoid of purpose when there’s an abundance of meaningful endeavors awaiting your attention? Buford challenges us to break free from stagnant routines and embrace a life of continued purpose. He asks, “As long as you’re able to do something meaningful, why would you want to go into some kind of holding pattern?” “Finishing Well” arms you with practical strategies and invaluable perspectives from “second season trailblazers” to ensure your journey remains purposeful and inspiring, regardless of your age or stage in life.

    Whether you’re in your twenties or your eighties, “Finishing Well” is a timeless guide that propels you toward a future marked by significance. Don’t let another moment slip away without embracing the transformative power of a life lived with eternal purpose and meaning.
