“There is something more important than any ultimate weapon. That is the ultimate position-the position of total control over Earth that lies somewhere out in space. That is . . . the distant future, though not so distant as we may have thought.

We realize we've become slaves to the tyranny of the urgent.” ImportantDoneLightSeemsMotivationalTodayActionEnergyRealizingLossWeekPerspectiveTasksSlaveTyrannyAppealsInstantFadesRecallsUrgentIrresistibleMomentaryDeceptiveProminence Author:Charles Hummel
