Omaha Author Asks: Are You Setting the Right Priorities?
Brett Atlas authors Three Things Matter Most
If you took an inventory of your life today, would it be a story of a life well lived?
That’s the question Omahan Brett Atlas asks in his new book, Three Things Matter Most—
Linking Time, Relationships, and Money, a collection of insights that influence the way people
set priorities in their lives.
Drawing from the wisdom of the centuries, philosophy, psychology, as well as from
personal experiences, Atlas explains that as the pace of our lives increases, we often lose track
of what determines the quality of our lives—the basics: time, relationships, and money—not
how much money we have but how we use it. Atlas says, “The book is ultimately a guide to help
readers identify the most important and meaningful things in their lives. You only get one
life, so I hope it motivates and inspires people to make the most of it.”
Although he didn’t originally plan to write a book, he has worked on material for the
book throughout his life. “My dad always used to share wisdom and anecdotes, but when he
passed away, I was saddened to find out he hadn’t written anything down. I thought of my own
kids, and I decided to make sure they would have the benefit of all the crucial life lessons I’ve
learned through study and experience.”
Atlas has been actively putting the book together over the past decade. The book is a
Fall 2021 release by Addicus Books, Omaha, Nebraska.
