AUGUST 13
MIND

*What could your life be like? Now have the courage to take the steps needed.
BODY
Fidel Castro 1926

When Cuba was hit by food shortages, the average Cuban lost around 10 lbs in weight, causing deaths from heart disease to fall by a third.
*Have your own personal food shortage today. Don’t eat all day, until the Tuscan stew for dinner. Just water and maybe a Cuban cigar for lunch.
SOUL

‘Because my childhood was impoverished I always felt I was this kid with no voice,’
‘Then, suddenly, I had a voice. A big voice. But overcoming my demons hasn’t been easy. Writing songs is my way of conquering them.’
*Listen to James Morrison and write your own song to conquer any demons.
MONEY

Annie Oakley used her astonishing marksmanship to escape a poor childhood in Ohio and become the first female superstar in what had been a male-dominated profession.
*Use your astonishing talent to become an entrepreneurial superstar.
