Overview : You need to pick up the phone and make a call, as hard as it may seem to be. You know it's right and you can tell that you've got the right kind of energy to tell that person what they need to hear. Extended : As soon as you can find the facts you are seeking, your recent project will kick into high gear! So if that deadline is making you nervous, turn your curiosity up and get to work filling in the missing information, today. There is at least one person who has the time and the energy to help you on this quest, so don't be shy about asking for their assistance. Make this a team effort, and you will get so much more out of it. Crossing the finish line with someone right beside you will feel good. Work : You got a lot achieved all week, and now you can allow yourself a sigh of relief. Well, it's a bit premature, but if no one is within earshot, let out a lungful. Home & Garden : Make merry for the simple reason you are alive and kicking. Eating alone? Get out the fun stuff because you deserve it. Linen napkins pulled through unusual beaded elephant rings area a good place to begin.
Overview : One of the most common (and consistently false) assumptions people make is that everyone else has it together. The first half of the week, make a conscious effort to break out of that mindset. Seeing yourself and your fellow human beings with compassion helps with that task. Thursday and Friday are good times to make an art form out of commonly tossed-off things: how well can you craft that memo? Could you possibly have perfected the art of efficient recycling? The weekend is leisurely and filled with friends -- how lovely! Business : Things are very odd during the first half of the week and you might have to just work at bailing water for the time being. Your energy levels vary dramatically over Monday, but as you settle into midweek, you find that your rivals (internal and external) seem to have all decided to strike at the same time. You can handle it, but it's all you can do. You find your way to a solid foundation on Thursday and can build up quite a bit -- and you ought to be able to count on at least one new ally to help. The weekend is a good time to ponder the culture of your industry and how you fit into it. Travel : On Monday, you meet some fellow travelers who feel like kindred spirits and on Tuesday you realize how new friends are often just old ones wearing a disguise. Recognizing patterns in your life gives you a solid foundation from which you can extend yourself on Wednesday. During the last two days of the week, make sure you respect your boundaries and the boundaries of others, especially any older people who are in your traveling party. Live it up over the weekend and take lots of photos while you're at it.
