NATIONAL EAT A PEACH DAY
MIND
Ray Bradbury 1920
“Society Dies if We Do Not Think.”
*Society is dying. I teach teenagers and they are addicted to their phones and cannot verbally communicate with other human beings. Read Bradbury’s Fahrenheit 451 – he warned us.
BODY
Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje 1967
“We lived in the gym! Really, it was like a regimen. We had four weeks’ training before principal photography, which consisted of two hours of fight training with swordsmanship and weaponry, and fight choreography, which is quite grueling, and then an hour of weight training and then an hour of cardio. So we did about four hours a day of working out for about four weeks.”
*Work out for 4 hours today. Combine weight training, cardio, and boxing. Watch the movie Pompeii for motivation
SOUL
Bill McCartney 1940
The mission of Promise Keepers is to issue a call to the Body of Christ, to hear and obey the Word of God in the power of the Holy Spirit.
McCartney is also the founder of The Road to Jerusalem ministry. The organization’s mission is to encourage Gentile believers in Jesus Christ to embrace the Messianic Jewish community.
*Hear and obey the word of God today, in the power of the Holy Spirit. Take today to embrace another religion.
MONEY
Ty Burrell 1967
“I think I’m not really willing to travel very much anymore, or miss too many dinners away from my kids,”
“[So] there’s a possibility that I may step away from performing altogether when the show is over.”
*Get yourself to a point where you can walk away from your job to spend more time with your family. Watch some Modern Family to get a good look at Ty Burrell as Phil Dunphy aka Best Dad Ever!
ENTERTAINMENT
Kristin Wiig 1973 – watch Bridesmaids
In Bridesmaids, Melissa McCarthy put it best: You have to fight for your shitty life. Only you have the ability to change your life, which entails that you stop moping, get up and do something about it.
*Fight for your shitty life and watch Bridesmaids today.
FOOD
Giada De Laurentiis 1970 – peach and bacon frittata
De Laurentiis told The Chew hosts that she was called Jabba the Hutt — not because of her looks, but because Star Wars had just come out, and “Jabba” and “Giada” sound too similar for kids to resist.

National Eat a Peach Day
August 22 is the National Eat a Peach Day in the United States. This date was chosen because peaches are harvested between June and August.
