PRINCESS LEIA DAY
MIND
Alfred Nobel 1833
“I am a misanthrope and yet utterly benevolent, have more than one screw loose yet am a super-idealist who digests philosophy more efficiently than food.”
It was the idealist in him that drove Nobel to leave his fortune to those who had benefited humanity through science, literature and efforts to promote peace.

BODY
Ricky Rubio 1990
When Rubio is tired of the gym, he and his trainer engaged in outside-the-box training, like going kayaking or hopping on a bike and going for a long ride.
*Go kayaking today, or if that’s not an option, hop on a bike and go for a long ride. Play a game of pickup basketball and be the point guard like Rubio.
SOUL
Ronald McNair 1950
“So how was a colored boy from South Carolina — wearing glasses, never flew a plane — how was he gonna become an astronaut?”

MONEY
Kim Kardashian 1980
“I’m cheap about so many things. I look over everything. I would say I am pretty frugal,”
“You know, I thought the more money I made, that I would spend more. And that’s the opposite. The more money that I make, the more I want to save.”
*Hopefully you have become like Kim Kardashian… in some ways. The more money that you’ve made is hopefully inspiring you to save even more. Look over all of your spending this year and see where you can be more frugal.
ENTERTAINMENT

*Not only is it the last Jedi, it’s the last time you will see Carrie Fisher as Princess Leia. Watch it with your brother or sister – don’t open mouth kiss them though.
