Some quotes from this book: "The word priority came into the English language in the 1400s. It was singular. It meant the very first or prior thing. It stayed singular for the next five hundred years. Only in the 1900s did we pluralize the term and start talking about priorities."
"When we are unclear about our real purpose in life-- in other words, when we don't have a clear sense of our goals, our aspirations and our values-- we make up our own social games. We waste time and energy on trying to look good in comparison to other people."
I am not sure how the book is, but the audio book is pretty good :)
