“I love SoulCycle.”

*Hopefully your gym has spinning classes available. If not, seek out a gym that will give you a one-time free spin class or even better a SoulCycle class. This will be recommended several times this year.

SOUL

Mac Miller 1992

Mac Miller death: Hollywood Hills man James Pettit arrested in connection  to death of platinum hip-hop star - ABC7 Los Angeles

“Well, I was raised Jewish but I went to a Catholic school, so I learned a lot about religion and it has always kind of infatuated me. I’m just very interested in it. But, as far as my personal views, I believe that there’s something out there, but I don’t believe that anyone knows what it is.”

*Be a believer. No matter what religion you partake in, simply believe that there’s a higher power.

MONEY

Edgar Allan Poe 1809

Despite the relative success of stories such as “The Gold Bug,” Poe was unable to make enough money to support his family.

*Maybe the ultimate tale in not being recognized in his time. Make sure that you are being compensated for your brilliance. However, read The Gold Bug to get some perspective on money.

ENTERTAINMENT

Janis Joplin 1943
