Putting your trust in a romantic interest may be a mistake. Although you adore everything your partner does and says they may not be reliable in certain situations. It's better to tackle time sensitive jobs yourself, since you rarely procrastinate. If you're looking for love, be patient about finding the right partner. You have a weakness for fast talking charmers. You're better off with someone who is constant, loyal and loving who puts time and energy into their relationships.

Making too many sacrifices for your family is an exercise in disaster. Encourage your loved ones to shoulder their own responsibilities. Don't come to their rescue every time they get into trouble. Fostering a sense of self sufficiency is the best gift you can give your nearest and dearest. They'll complain and accuse you of cruelty in the early stages. Turn a deaf ear to these accusations. You've always cared deeply for your relatives. That doesn't mean you should be made to suffer on their behalf.

Try not to jump to conclusions about a newcomer. By giving people the benefit of the doubt, you'll pave the way for some productive relationships. You're upset that a talented person had to leave your midst, but it couldn't be helped. If you later decide you cannot remain part of this group, you can leave of your own accord. It's too early to make such judgments. Be patient and see how things shake out. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Although money is coming in at a pleasing rate, you should be conservative about spending. Put as much of your income into an interest bearing savings account as possible. Having an economic cushion will keep stress at bay. There are some unexpected expenses on the horizon. Being able to replace a car, computer or phone will cause you to breathe a sigh of relief. You hate being so reliant on technology, but it's a necessary component of modern life. Grin and bear it.

Insisting on doing things alone will backfire. You will benefit from a strong support system. Fortunately, a quick witted friend will be able to accompany you on a doctor's visit, household errand or work trip. Having another pair of hands will save time, money and aggravation. You've always been capable of doing tremendous amounts of work. When you have the option of getting assistance, do so. There's no sense in grinding your gears when you could be greasing them.

Keeping a low profile is a mistake. You have to establish yourself as a force with which to contend. Rivals who are eager to eclipse you will try to push you aside. Be ready to push back. You have marvellous ideas that must be aired. Schedule an appointment with an important business executive or community leader. Don't be discouraged if you get an unenthusiastic response. The more strident your pitch, the more seriously it will be taken. Nobody is a better advocate for this cause than you.

You must practice discernment when it comes to your social circle. Tolerating a person who makes insensitive remarks will put you in a difficult situation. You don't want to be pressured into defending somebody who is always causing offense. You're an extremely diplomatic person who takes pains not to hurt others. Befriending someone who likes making waves will undermine your reputation. Keep this pest at arm's length. You have enough kind hearted friends.

Being forced to adapt makes you angry and resentful. Refusing to move with the times could result in a loss of income. Instead of applying the brakes, try coasting. It will take time to learn the new way of doing things, so be gentle with yourself. Fortunately, your colleagues will be willing to assist you with any areas that are difficult to grasp. It may be necessary to see a certain task demonstrated several times before you master it.

Beware of becoming too dogmatic in your views and attitudes. Having extreme beliefs will cut you off from important relationships. Although you may have a radically different political ideology from someone, you can still work together well. It can be helpful to avoid sensitive issues when you are collaborating. Focusing on work will be surprisingly enjoyable. When you combine your strengths, the results are very impressive.

Making too many changes at once is bewildering. Instead of trying to climb a mountain in one go, break down your task. A series of small steps will help you adjust to unfamiliar surroundings, new responsibilities and different routines. If you've recently started a new job, concentrate on mastering your current duties before bucking for a promotion. It's possible to enjoy life when you're playing a supporting role, rather than a leading part. Try to form good relationships with your fellow workers.

It will be necessary to rock the boat. You've tried hard to compromise and make amends, but a bully keeps abusing their power. Summon your courage and expose their methods. A public scandal may be the only way to form this power hungry individual. You'll be surprised how quickly your methods find support. Everybody has been suffering in silence under this despot. Once you challenge this behaviour, a movement will gather. Soon, your troubles will melt away like morning mist.

Don't accept any more assignments than you can handle. Whenever there is a project to organise, people expect you to take the helm. You're tired of having no time for the activities and people you enjoy. Clear your schedule of obligations. Catch up on your reading. Watch some movies. Go to a few concerts and plays. Have coffee with an old friend. Exhaustion will give way to contentment. At that point, you can think about philanthropic pursuits again.
