Never Eat Alone: And Other Secrets to Success, One Relationship at a Time
by Keith Ferrazzi
by Keith Ferrazzi
I read this book during my lunch break :)
My favorite paragraph from the book is below. Keith Ferrazzi makes reference to a Brooks Brothers shirt because he said that one he reached, what I will calls "status", he was going to by an expensive Brooks Brother's shirt. He bought one, washed it for the first time and two buttons fell off.
We’ve been taught to see live as a quest, a journey that ends with, hopefully, meaning, love and an IRA that will keep our golden years golden. There is, however, no end, no final arrival; the quest never ends. There is not one job title or one Brooks Brothers shirt or one dollar amount that can ever act as the ultimate finishing line. Which is why the achievement of some goals can feel as disappointing as failure.
