WHAT IS ‘HALFTIME’?
‘Halftime’ is a time-out. It’s a time to pause, reflect on what you’ve accomplished, who you’ve become, and what will matter most to you in the next season of life. It’s an opportunity to make a course correction or commit to stay the course so that you are equipped to direct your time and resources purposefully.
| MYTH | REALITY |
|---|---|
| ‘Halftime’ is triggered by a midlife crisis | ‘Halftime’ is triggered by a mid-life transition – and there’s a difference! Whether it be in your career or personally, you’re in ‘halftime’ when you face a transition that leaves you asking, “what’s next?” |
| You must be over the age of 60 and retired from your career to be in ‘halftime’. | ‘Halftime’ is not determined by age, but rather by stage. Our clients range from mid-30s to mid-70s and cross all industries, ethnicities, and genders. |
| You must sell all your belongings and move across the globe in order to pursue true significance. | Our clients pursue significance in a variety of ways, each unique to their individual experiences, passions, and skills. In fact, the majority of our clients determine there are minor course corrections they can make to their existing careers and ventures in order to experience more joy, impact, and balance! |
This concept of ‘halftime’ was born out of the best-selling book, Halftime: Moving from Success to Significance, written by Bob Buford in 1994. Following the popularity and resonance of his book, Bob founded the Halftime Institute in order to provide a hands-on process and community for growth, support, and learning for people walking through their own season of ‘halftime’. Since 2013 the Greater China chapter has been established to equip marketplace leaders locally.
