THE EVERETT ADVOCATE – FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 25, 2022 Page 5 50 Cent returning to Encore Boston Harbor on March 4 C By Christopher Roberson urtis James Jackson III, known by his stage name 50 Cent, will once again perform at the Mémoire nightclub at Encore Boston Harbor on March 4. He also performed at Mémoire in June 2021. “Having big name artists and talent at our venues is something we strive to deliver to our guests,” said Joseph Mazzei of Big Night Entertainment. He said 50 Cent, together with Snoop Dogg and Dr. Dre, gave an unexpected yet memorable performance during the Halftime Show of Super Bowl LVI in Inglewood, California. “We anticipate 50 Cent at Mémoire to be another sold out night like we had with Diplo’s recent performance. 50 Cent at Mémoire will feature a sampling of his hit songs Curtis James Jackson III, known by stage name as 50 Cent, will be performing on March 4 at the Mémoire nightclub at Encore Boston Harbor.

Some of his top songs are “In da Club,” “21 Questions,” “Candy Shop” and “Disco Inferno.” He has also compiled five albums, starting with “Get Rich or Die Tryin,’” which came out in 2003 and put 50 Cent on the path to stardom. Later albums included “The Massacre,” “Curtis,” “Before I Self Destruct” and “Animal Ambition.” Known as a “master of the nuanced art of lyrical brevity,” 50 Cent boasts a current net worth of approximately $40 million. In addition to performing at the Super Bowl, 50 Cent was a featured performer at the Golden Sand music festival in Riviera Maya, Mexico, last month. During his 26year career, 50 Cent has won 86 awards, including 16 BillWeigh Better Habits By Samuel Amado, Jr. D epending on whom you ask (or what you happen to be reading), it can take anywhere from two weeks to two months to break and replace old habits with new (hopefully better) habits. In some cases, novelty makes it easier to maintain a relatively new routine. However, that same new routine is easier to disrupt (because of weather or some other distraction). Part of setting a routine requires a minimum of self-discipline. This means spending certain amount of time working on something. This can be a specific quantity of time per week (__ hours), a specific block of time (Monday and Tuesday, ___a.m.-____a.m.) or getting a certain amount of work done (___ reps or lifts). At my studio (Weigh Better U), we do what we can to support and encourage people to hold to their best habits and reach their goals. At our facility on Main Street in Everett, we have a built-in buddy system with supportive coaches and instructors who make a point of understanding the client as a person, treating regular check-ins as conversations. Another way to hold to a routine is to make it a game, or simply collect data. Counting inches lost or gained (from weight loss or muscle gain) can also make a goal seem more real and thus more possible. My studio offers a 3D body scanner, allowing people to get full-body snapshots of themselves as they begin or continue their new and healthier habits. You are probably reading this after Valentine’s Day and before Easter, two candy-heavy holidays. It will soon be spring. What were your goals back in January? Losing weight? Gaining muscle? Building endurance?What was your plan to reach that goal? Diet? Weights? Cardio? I hope that you have been successful with your goals. What have you been doing?
