Silver and Still Surfing: Finding Your Mojo After 50. TEN KEYS FOR MEN TO BUILD A PURPOSEFUL SECOND ACT.

Life after 50 is not a slowdown. It is an awakening.
If you have ever wondered whether your best years are behind you, this book will prove otherwise. Silver and Still Surfing is a powerful guide for men ready to rediscover strength, purpose, and clarity in the second half of life. Written with honesty, warmth, and practicality, it shows you how to reset your direction, sharpen your habits, and live with conviction when society expects you to fade.
This is not another hollow pep talk. It is a working manual for men who want more than nostalgia or survival. With plain words and real assignments, Robert N. Jacobs gives you ten keys that will transform your second act. You will learn how to:

• Reawaken your sense of purpose and shift from chasing success to living with significance.
• Harvest the wisdom you already carry and use it to make sounder choices.
• Upgrade your health with simple, sustainable habits that fit a real week.
• Renew your mindset so that the script in your head pushes you forward instead of holding you back.
• Strengthen friendships, deepen faith, and repair relationships with presence and honesty.
• Practise stillness in a noisy world and carry calm into meetings, traffic, and your own home.
• Reignite creativity and keep your mind lively with new skills and projects.
• Mentor, serve, and leave a legacy that will outlast any job title.
• Build a second-act career that reflects who you are now rather than who you were twenty years ago.
• Celebrate progress with rituals that keep you grounded, grateful, and proud of the man you are becoming.

Why read this book? Because the years ahead are not about decline, they are about depth. By applying the tools in these chapters, you will notice your days become calmer, your decisions cleaner, your friendships warmer, and your usefulness harder to miss. You will sleep better, speak with more clarity, and discover that the people around you rely on your steadiness more than you realised.
The author does not lecture from a distance. He shares his own setbacks, including the shock of a medical diagnosis, and shows how those moments can sharpen rather than weaken a man. His advice is rooted in everyday actions, not slogans: a notebook, a calendar, a walk with a friend, a single sentence written before breakfast. These small moves add up to a life you respect when you turn off the lamp at night.
You will also find stories of men who reinvented themselves after 50. Some built new businesses, others mentored the next generation, some reignited long-lost talents, and others simply chose to be the steady hand in their community. Their lives prove that your silver years can be the most vibrant of all when lived with direction and heart.
The benefit is not just personal. This book shows you how to become the man others can lean on, the neighbour who makes a street feel safe, the friend who lowers the temperature in a room, and the father or grandfather whose example strengthens the next generation.
You might be silver, but you are still surfing.
Your second act is waiting, and it can be stronger, braver, and more useful than the first. Do not drift into the background when you still have wisdom to share, work to finish, and people to serve. Pick up this book, open your notebook, and start the small actions today that will shape the rest of your life.
