CHRISTINA HENDRICKS APPRECIATION DAY
MIND
Niccolo Machiavelli 1469
“There is such a gap between how one lives and how one should live that he who neglects what is being done for what should be done will learn his destruction rather than his preservation.”
*Take today to compare how you are living to how you should be living.
BODY

“Not only is it great cardio, but it works everything, strengthening your whole body.”
*Take your better half dancing tonight. Dance like James Brown!
SOUL
James Brown 1933 – The Godfather of Soul
What became known as soul music in the Sixties, funk music in the Seventies and rap music in the Eighties is directly attributable to James Brown.

MONEY
Damon Dash 1971
“I’m mad at y’all for having the same job for 25 years…I can’t imagine doing the same shit every day having to be told what to do every day…and ask to go on vacation.”
*As I type this, I’m in my 25th year of teaching. I wish I would’ve seen the above quote 26 years ago.
