You may be so driven you forget to have fun today. Lighten up a little bit or you could miss an opportunity to expand your horizons with a trip or course. Don't fool yourself into thinking the team won't be able to get along without you. The skeleton crew will function just fine on their own. In the meantime, you owe it to yourself to explore new territory. You're too talented to stay shackled to this position.
Stifling a child's creativity is a big mistake. Although it's understandable you want stability for your young friend, it shouldn't mean discouraging the arts. If you don't have a child, this advice may apply to you. You've always had a gift for craftwork like pottery, carving, and jewellery making. Suppressing these impulses will only make you miserable. Make time for hobbies, especially if it means reducing your workload.
Painful issues from your past are threatening to ruin your personal life. It's time to get help for this issue. You've got to stop beating yourself up about this incident. It doesn't matter if this situation was foisted upon you or you brought it on yourself. The fact is, you've got a life to lead and it can't happen if you're frozen in time. Work out how your friends, family, and partner will be affected if you keep dwelling on the past.
Stop pressurising yourself to learn something new. You need to be patient. Mastery will only come if you practice and make repeated mistakes. Sure, you'll look foolish at first, but everybody does when they're plunged into unfamiliar territory. The more you worry about your precious dignity, the harder life will be in the long run. Take an expert's teasing with good humour. Being a good sport will make you a welcome member of the team.
Beware of getting too wrapped up in material matters. Just because you don't have as much money as your neighbours doesn't mean you are doomed to a miserable existence. Actually, you are far more prosperous in other areas. You have lots of friends who make your life fulfilling. Focus on these riches instead of yearning for a new car or palatial estate. If you're looking to expand your personal fortune, you may want to start a business with your nearest and dearest.
You long to be self reliant, but that's just not possible right now. You need the patronage of an employer. Although this person's bossy behaviour is grating, you've got to endure it. If you focus on honing your skills and saving your money, you can start your own enterprise. Right now, though, you've got to play the part of the trusted assistant. Blow off steam at the gym. That way, you'll be in incredible shape when it comes time for your close up.
You're ultra sensitive now, which could make you bristle at an expert's comments. Don't let pride get in the way of improving your performance. Yes, you may be ahead of your peers, but that doesn't mean you should rest on your laurels. The real test of your ability is your willingness to accept constructive criticism. Instead of defending your good work, strive to kick things up a few notches. You'll advance to the next level and your efforts will be rewarded.
Trying to fit in with the crowd is a losing battle. Embrace your individuality and let the chips fall where they may. Sure, you may get a few strange looks along the way, but that's the price you have to pay for being one of a kind. As far as love is concerned, there may be a struggle between spending time with your friends and focusing on your amour. The two camps are at odds with each other, and you're stuck playing referee.
Seeking to win at all costs will backfire. It's better to be a graceful loser than a sore winner. Although it comes as a shock someone is better than you, this is a lesson you need to learn. It's not enough to have a stellar reputation. When the chips are down, you need the love of friends and family. Everybody falls from the top spot. How you handle the descent says more about your character than your natural talent.
You must be patient if you're going to move up the ladder of success. Normally, this isn't a problem for you, as you're naturally tenacious. Today you're having a hard time seeing people sprint past, while you're still plodding along. Instead of trying to match their pace, find a more comfortable rate for you. Nobody will judge you for slowing down. Until you master a new set of skills, it may be hard to find work.
It's hard to know what makes a child or lover tick today. Every time you think you're doing something nice for this person, they act offended. At times like these, you need to back away and focus on your own needs. Don't worry; this person will eventually come around. Until then, you've got plenty of places to go and people to see. Don't make the mistake of brooding. This will just give undue power to the person in question.
It's hard to get along with a business or romantic partner. This person seems to get pleasure from heaping responsibilities on your shoulders. You've got to set some boundaries here. Yes, you'll have to do your fair share of the work, but that doesn't mean you have to do everything yourself! If you're on your own, it may be because you're playing the martyr. Don't be afraid to ask for assistance, it will help you build bridges with others.
