Cary whistled as the car pulled away. "Well, well. From the way you were looking at him, that was the guy you told me about, right?" "Oh, yeah. That was definitely him." "You work together?" Linking arms with me, Cary tugged me out to the street through the stationary door. "No." I stopped on the sidewalk to change into my walking flats, leaning into him as pedestrians flowed around us.

Did you know that the sentence was first divided into subject and verb by Plato, the famed philosopher from ancient Greece? That was about 2,400 years ago!

First, you liked what they said, and your fondest wish was for them to be true for you. But your second response was probably one of skepticism and disbelief. Even though you deeply xiii ccc_tracy_fm_i-xviii.qxd 7/7/03 3:23 PM Page xiv xiv ➤ INTRODUCTION desire to live a wonderfully healthy, happy, prosperous life, when you read those words, your doubts and fears arose immediately to remind you of reasons why these dreams and goals may not be pos- sible for you. Well, join the crowd! This is exactly how I felt many years ago. Even though I wanted to be a big success in life, I was unskilled, uneducated, and unem- ployed. I had no idea what I could do to improve my situation. I felt trapped between big ideas on the one hand and limited resources
