MIND
Eleanor Roosevelt 1884

Happiness is not a goal, it is a by-product. Paradoxically, the one sure way not to be happy is deliberately to map out a way of life in which one would please oneself completely and exclusively. After a short time, a very short time, there would be little that one really enjoyed. For what keeps our interest in life and makes us look forward to tomorrow is giving pleasure to other people.

*Give pleasure to other people and happiness will be the by-product.
BODY
Michelle Wie 1989
Most importantly, she tries to stay in the present.
“I want to really stay in the present and not be too anxious about the future or over-analyze the past,” says Wie. Sage advice from a seasoned pro. “[I’m going to] do everything I can right now for the future, and then just see what happens.”

*Stay in the present and play 18 holes. Don’t over-analyze the past – like the last shot you just shanked into the lake. Watch some of Wie’s swing videos from her website to prepare.
SOUL
Steve Young 1961

As a Mormon, I am inspired daily by that which is plain and simple yet incomparable in its depth and personal impact. Through the gospel of Jesus Christ and through Christ’s Atonement in Gethsemane, my sins are paid as long as I believe in him, take his name, humble myself and repent.

*As long as you believe, humble yourself and repent, your sins are forgiven.
MONEY
Fred Trump 1905
FRED’S THE REASON DONALD SET HIS SIGHTS ON MANHATTAN.
In the interest of one-upping his famous dad, Donald’s first major purchase (with the now-infamous $1 million loan from Fred) was a hotel in Manhattan. “You know, being the son of somebody, it could have been competition to me,” Trump has said. “This way, I got Manhattan all to myself!”

*Think about how you can one-up your dad. Borrow money from him and then become better than him.

Stephen Moyer 1969 – watch True Blood

‘True Blood’s’ Stephen Moyer: ‘I’ve already drunk all the drinks that I was supposed to drink in one lifetime’
“This morning I was up early to let the dogs out (the couple have two that travel everywhere with them – Dave a black Labrador cross and Banjo a Louisiana Leopard Dog). I had a coffee and watched the sunrise with a clear head and it occurred to me that I’m the grown up now that I never thought I would be – the grown up that, maybe, at one time, I was running away from because I thought it would be so incredibly dull to be that person, whereas the absolute reverse is true.”
Invest Wisely
You’ve got to provide for your future, because you never know how long you’re going to live. It could be centuries! And remember, lottery tickets aren’t a viable financial plan.

*Get up early and watch the sun come up. Binge watch as much True Blood as you can at night.
