Summary/Abstract: In this article I take a reflection on the meaning of life breakthroughs in adult life in the context of discovering and becoming aware by a person of the new development opportunities. Particular importance is attached to the notion of creativity analyzed in relation to the possibility for adults to explore new directions of fulfillment during their mid-adulthood. I assume that the creation of goods, ideas and values, crossing their own barriers and taking transgressive actions allows adults to transform consciously the life’s project and future plans. In the present text I also clarified the issues that may be interesting in the biographical research, as well as in terms of adult education, focusing on the theme of life breakthrough, the transformation of life, opportunities for development and creativity of adults in their middle age.
