You're growing bored with regular social plans and the chance to take on some overtime will provide the ideas excuse to pull out of them. There are some people you feel you need to avoid for a more peaceful life. A senior colleague's independent view will prove valuable.
It will be easier and less stressful to stick with jobs you are familiar with. If you work in the media you may need to choose your words very carefully when reporting a news story of some significance. Conversations with your team help you form your judgement.
One way to please your boss or another senior colleague would be to do what you are told. The trouble is you won't be keen on what they are asking from you. Other people might be happy to let others do all the thinking but not you. You have your own ideas and you want those in high places to take them seriously.
Allowing emotions to interfere with the job in hand is not such a good idea. All decisions to do with your career should be based on logic and analysis. You're always in touch with your feelings but occasionally emotions can interfere with your choices in a way that isn't for the best. Today is one of them.
You aren't sure what you make of a new system in the workplace that was introduced at the start of the year. What is going on seems incredibly frustrating for you. People are having a difficult time already and the tension isn't likely to ease soon if some complaints are ignored.
To get acknowledgement from those in high places for what you are doing shows your work is respected by others. An award will lift your spirits. You are an inspiration to others and it is hoped you will inspire many more through your work in the community or for a charity.
Keep your sense of humour handy when you hear of a neighbour's complaints. It would be better to find an excuse to leave the conversation. Arguments within the family will arise over household expenses. Someone is strapped for cash and you may have to offer to pay for more than you think is fair in order to cover joint financial commitments.
Don't beat about the bush, just say what it is that is on your mind. Whether you need to bring up a deeply personal matter or it is something to do with your job that is bothering you, get straight to the point to avoid misunderstandings and confusion.
Patience and diplomacy are what will be needed when conversations get confusing. Either you or someone else will jump to the wrong conclusion. If a friend or workmate seems frustrated and is unable to get their message across, give them a bit more time to find the right words.
When there are problems, as always, others will look to you to help sort them out. This will be time consuming and difficult. You will naturally wonder whether it is worth all the worry and hassle. Instead of reverting to habit and carrying on regardless, suggest someone else take the strain for a change.
Your income no longer matches your outgoings and this is causing cash flow problems. Resist the initial temptation of seeking a pay rise. It is unlikely your employer will be agreeable. Instead, find ways to trim your immediate expenses by cutting down on subscriptions to on-demand services and spending less on socialising.
A tale you find hard to believe will turn out to be true. Truth seems to be more complicated than fiction. Once you've done some research and you discover that what you have heard is actually true, you will be left with a lot of thinking to do.
