Although you may experience delays as you strive to reach your ambitious goals today, it takes more than a few unwanted detours to dampen your enthusiasm. In fact, a surprising setback only inspires you to try harder as you're not likely to admit to failure. But blind optimism doesn't work in your favor. Be mindful of any possible pitfalls now, instead of just admiring the benefits of your plan. Keeping your eyes wide open multiplies your chances for success.
You believe you possess an effective action plan that will land you at your destination ahead of schedule. However, you may be so jazzed with your progress now that you take on more jobs in a flurry of excitement. Avoid all temptations to make additional commitments; your reputation shines if you finish what you already have on your plate before making promises you can't keep. Benjamin Franklin wrote, "Well done is better than well said."
Creating a lot of fanfare about your role in the community is exhilarating, but no one will likely remember your words in the long run. Many people may misunderstand you today, but it's not your job to set them straight. Ultimately, your character will be assessed by what you do rather than what you say. Minding your own business takes precedence over anything else. Wayne Dyer said, "When you judge another, you do not define them; you define yourself as someone who needs to judge."
You may start off today like there's no tomorrow. But you might work at such a fevered pace that you lose sight of your ambitious goal. You certainly don't want to be exhausted before you fulfill your obligations. Unfortunately, if you slow down to conserve your energy, you could lose momentum. Although you're attracted to extreme solutions now, the moderate ones are the most enduring. A Yiddish proverb warns: "Measure twice, cut once."
You can accomplish your mission with time to spare, as long as you don't let any distractions creep into your world. Nevertheless, you may inadvertently instigate a major drama by talking about your feelings. But just as everything begins to settle down, another surprise might show up. Treat everyone else with the same courtesy you wish for yourself. The Dalai Lama said, "The more you are motivated by love, the more fearless and free your action will be."
You are yearning for change so intensely that you might dream of all the structures around you tumbling down like a house of cards. But, in reality, you would never let that happen because you're attracted to the stability of the status quo. Dancing on the fine line between chaos and boredom requires a specific set of skills for which you are uniquely equipped. Take a risk and act spontaneously while you feel it in your bones because cutting loose becomes more difficult this evening. Knock on opportunity's door instead of waiting for it to show up at yours.
You derive great pleasure from being in the company of people who appear to have broken free from their regular responsibilities. You are eager to join their ranks, even if you haven't yet achieved escape velocity. Nevertheless, you're afraid to sink back into the comforts of your familiar patterns. You might believe that taking a quantum leap is your most intelligent strategy, but you quickly realize that it's not. Impulsive actions will likely lead to trouble today, so put away the parachute and put on your life vest instead.
Your plans may sound fantastic but only until you try to put them into motion. Fortunately, whatever obstacles you encounter today are like grist for your mill. Eagerly engaging with your current challenge is the first step to clearing the path to new opportunities. Remember, there are no mistakes now, only more chances to learn from experience. Information you gather -- even if it comes at a cost – can be helpful. B.B. King said, "The beautiful thing about learning is that no one can take it away from you."
You are a powerhouse of intention today but some of your drives might not be as useful as others. However, it's nearly impossible to tell which goals are worth your extra effort. First things first: reestablish a set of priorities based upon your values. Once you have your list in order, start at the top and don't stop until you can clearly see your progress. Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire.
You are not easily pulled off course, but reality makes a convincing case for you to create a new itinerary today. Nevertheless, you can put up a good fight, claiming that you don't trust an unfamiliar route, even if it appears to be a shortcut. Often, your success is determined by your ability to calculate the most effective method to achieve your goal. Francois de La Rochefoucauld wrote, "It's not sufficient to have great qualities; we must be able to make proper use of them."
You are so enamored with thoughts of the future that you find it difficult to fully show up in the here and now. Your fascination with all the possibilities could grow into such a obsession that you spend all your waking time plotting and scheming about ways to make your dreams come true. Nevertheless, focusing your attention accomplishes more when you are concentrating on current events. Eckhart Tolle wrote, "Challenges are something that can only be tackled in the present moment."
High hopes for a promotion could entice you to put in extra hours at work now. Everything may be looking so perfect that you believe you can't miss this opportunity of a lifetime. However, the cause-and-effect relationship between your effort and the results is not as straightforward today as they should be, and you might be discouraged if you don't receive the recognition you expect. Lao Tzu wrote, "Nature does not hurry, yet everything is accomplished."
