We are striving to grow and thrive in retirement. Our goal is to Finish Strong! 

Philippians 3: 13 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.  

I retired in August of 2021. I still work part-time (maybe 40 hours a month) but have retired from the daily grind! My wife and I are really enjoying retired life!

My goal is to continue the blog for the forseeable future and find examples of retirees who are finishing strong in their lives to share with everyone.  Contact me if you've got a story and I'll set up an interview.

The theme is everyday experiences and suggestions about Finishing STRONG.  It doesn't matter if you are young or old, retired or not, rich or poor, or strong or weak.  What we all realize at some point of our lives is that we need to forget what is behind and Finish STRONG...giving it our best and making an impact on those around us.

To Finish Strong, you need to take stock of who you are, where you are in life, why you are here, and determine the best way for you to finish strong.   

Read through our offerings, make a plan, determine where you can make your best impact and move forward.  There are (and will be more) tools and resources in this site to help get you started and moving toward your goals and to FINISH STRONG!
