Fear makes you behave in strange ways. However, your warrior nature may tempt you to respond in an overly defensive manner today. Unfortunately, slipping into attack mode will not produce the results you want. Learning to listen without trying to justify your point of view helps to rein in temptation. Give others space to share by taking a few steps back and keeping your mind wide open. More patience, less reaction; less drama, more peace.
Your mind wanders while sorting out an emotional issue that might have triggered a feeling of loneliness today. Nevertheless, you are programmed to complete whatever you start, even if you must do it yourself. Although you derive a sense of freedom from knowing you can reach a goal on your own, you yearn for a solid relationship, too. Perhaps it is time to step out of familiar territory and let your needs be known. Maya Angelou wrote, "Ask for what you want and be prepared to get it!"
Group situations are often more challenging than one-on-one encounters. However, your ability to quickly scan an entire room enables you to get an instantaneous overview of a crowd. But don't make the mistake of only focusing on that one person who makes your heart skip a beat, trying to convince them that you are lovable. Instead of setting up a situation where you need to prove your worth to anyone, mix and mingle to widen your social horizons. Shanna Rodriguez wrote, "The great thing about new friends is that they bring new energy to your soul."
Someone at work may tell you something you consider unnecessary or even inappropriate today. Although you want to be diplomatic, beating around the bush drains too much of your energy. Just say whatever is on your mind without worrying too much about the response. You already have plenty on your agenda and need to get back to your work. The most important thing to remember is that your time is as precious as you are.
Be humble or be humbled. Unfortunately, overestimating your strength might lead to chaos. Meanwhile, the universe is nudging you to perform at your highest potential and honor a noble code of ethics. It's time to put to practice all the theory you have in your mental arsenal. Start making conscious choices now to prevent a minor crisis later. Transparency is your saving grace. Nothing good will come from making promises you can't keep. Wear your integrity with pride.
Intense inner work pays off in the end. You are becoming more aware of who you are and your purpose on this planet. Nevertheless, the elimination of anything that is not pertinent to your journey is taking a bit of time. When you find yourself up against narrow minds, be patient and use your gift of analysis to steer clear of any argument. Be mindful when you speak, and you will create the harmony you seek. Tony Robbins said, "Stay committed to your decisions, but flexible in your approach."
Listening to other people's advice and opinions has always come naturally to you. However, being conscious of your own perspective requires tuning into the quiet workings of your mind. When you're comfortable in your own skin, you can remain centered in any context, whether it is family, intimate relationships or in a social arena. Thankfully, the cosmos is offering you an opportunity to create inner equilibrium. Hold space for the input of others but be courageous enough to take a stand when it matters.
You might sometimes feel like you are born in the wrong century, and that people live by current standards that are alien to you. The only way you can truly be safe is when there is complete honesty and, unfortunately, that seems to be out of fashion now. The high ideals you place on any relationship lays the foundation for later disappointments. Of course, choosing the right person is the most sensible starting point. But it's your attachment to a specific outcome that leads to trouble, not your unwillingness to settle. Shakespeare wrote, "Expectation is the root of all heartache."
Life is simultaneously pulling you in many directions and you must decide which way to go now. It is natural for people to grow apart and you need to examine connections that are no longer mirroring your path. New truths emerge as your basic values are in transition. What applied yesterday is no longer true today. Replenish your energy by spending time only with those who support your personal growth. Old ways don't open new doors.
Some days are just crazier than others. However, stress is unavoidable if you try to escape by denying reality. Thankfully, you can rise to the challenge of navigating through the storm if you decide to take the most direct route. You are more courageous than ever but wish you didn't have to demonstrate your ability to succeed again and again. Rest safely knowing that you are not going backward in time. Visualizing your future is the first step to creating it.
It might feel as if the next phase of your life is so close that you can reach out and grab it. Nevertheless, you may run into one annoying obstacle after another, requiring your full attention to handle each as they appear. Unfortunately, your impatience can work against you now, tempting you to give up and walk away from all the stress. The truth is you are making more progress than you realize, and success is closer than it seems. Confucius wrote, "It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop."
Spoiling people is easy. Unspoiling them is much harder. So before you have to repeat this exhausting cycle, start with being true to your vision by expressing your needs. If you are afraid that you are too strict or rigid in your thinking, shift your perspective to recognize that you are actually doing people a favor. Instead of being an unwitting enabler, you are setting them free from being dependent. Author Tom Peters wrote, "True leaders don't create followers, they create more leaders."
