“Life is good.” He said he feels no regret for any of the decisions he made as president: “If you’re a leader, you have to have principles that are inviolate, and make tough calls.” It will be interesting to see if history comes around to seeing his side of things.

*Life is good. Have no regrets today. Stick to your principles, even if it’s a tough call.

“I try to make sure that, no matter how busy our day is, we find time to train,” he explains. “If our day starts at 5 in the morning, that means we need to go to the gym at 4. If we’re at a hotel, before I even check in, I go to the gym to see what we have to work with.

*Yes, be like Kevin Hart and do his workout at 4am. Listen to 50 Cent and the Rocky soundtrack

For most people, it is best to keep to the faith of their birth, he said, because they have a deeper understanding of it. A few people may be convinced that another religion suits them better and may be moved to practice it seriously, but for most, “it’s very important to keep one’s own tradition.”

*You may be doing this already. If you’ve left the church that you grew up with, revisit it today for clarity as to why. I will have to revisit the Wesleyan Methodist church to remind myself why I’m never going back to it.

MONEY

Curtis Jackson was, is and always will be a master promoter. He’s always on the offensive, always pushing, he doesn’t let the facts of his circumstances determine how people view him. He determines how people view him and then let’s the facts catch up later. His entire business is based on the perception that he’s unbeatable, never takes a loss, and he’s very careful to maintain that perception.

*Have the mindset that you are unbeatable, and let people know that in the business world, you will never take a loss. Go shorty – it’s your birthday.

Another major reason that Rocky can rise as high as he does in the first movie is that he finally meets a trainer with whom he works well: Mickey (Burgess Meredith). This lesson, however, isn’t as boxing-specific as you might initially think. In any situation, your potential for success vastly increases if find someone who can teach you in a way you understand – give you the advice you need in a way that sticks with you. We should all be so lucky to find our respective Mickeys in life.

*So many choices here. Go with the classic. The Oscar winner. If the mood should strike, turn today into a Rocky marathon – it will take all day, good thing you already worked out at 4am.
