You're attracted to someone who is always making interesting proposals. It's baffling how such an inventive person can cope with rejection in an upbeat manner. You wish you could be as enthusiastic in the face of rejection. The more you spend time with your new friend, the easier it will be to adopt their methods. You'll realise true victory isn't a matter of winning people over. It's a question of staying true to your vision in both good times and bad.

You have an authoritative air which others respect. This is a great time to take charge of a project that has spiralled out of control. By reallocating resources to the people and places that need them most, you'll make admirable progress. Do you want a promotion? An impressive new position will be created. You're the perfect candidate for the job. Be sure to emphasise your patience, diligence and work ethic during an interview. Your employer is looking for someone with staying power.

A hunger for knowledge will prompt you to take an advanced class. At first, you will feel as if you're over your head. After a period of intense study, you'll catch up with the rest of the class. You've never turned away from an intellectual challenge. In fact, you'll enjoy trying to keep up with your smartest classmates. Don't make too many contributions in the first few classes. Take this opportunity to listen and learn from the more experienced people in the room.

You've always been good about detecting other people's motivations. This is especially true regarding family members. An older relative who is eager to contribute has been causing all sorts of trouble. They feel obsolete in a world that heavily depends on technology. Instead of writing them off as hopelessly old fashioned, ask them to demonstrate important skills like cooking, carpentry or gardening. Are they artistic? Ask for a painting or music lesson.

Forming a partnership with a technological genius is strongly advised. Ask them for help in creating a website or blog. In turn, you can help them with public relations and advertising. You have always been an expert in making others feel comfortable, valued and special. This skill is worth its weight in gold. Between their ingenuity and your finesse, the two of you can run a business that turns a handsome profit. Don't be afraid to go after an elusive customer base.

Organising a party or fundraiser will be a great use of your talent. You always think of things others never consider. Creating a place where people can meet and exchange ideas comfortably is always a challenge. You have to give careful thought to who will be invited, what their goals will be and how you can meet their needs. When in doubt, trust your instincts. You'll have to spend a little more money than you want, but the extra expense will yield remarkable results.

You've always been an irrepressible flirt. People feel attractive, witty and charming in your company. That's because you are able to draw out their best qualities. No wonder you're so popular. Use your powers to talk your way into an exclusive club or organisation. Mixing with influential people will advance your own prospects. Be sure to reach out to those who are involved in the arts. A manager, gallery owner or publisher can help you attain the fame and acclaim you desire.

Working at home boosts your productivity. You're tired of wasting energy on nervous colleagues who need constant reassurance. You've always had the courage of your convictions, which allows you to work swiftly and efficiently. This capacity to do twice the work in half the time makes you the perfect candidate to telecommute. Spend your free time on creative pursuits that make your spirit soar. You want more from life than regular pay. Pick up a paintbrush, pen or power tool.

A job involving working closely with other will come your way. It will give you great pleasure to share your knowledge with people who want to learn. Even those who are normally indifferent will blossom under your leadership. That's because you inject excitement into everything you do. If you play your cards right, you could become a regular contributor to a respected magazine or blog. Getting paid to exercise a special talent will be the answer to a prayer.

You hate cutting corners. Going at your own place allows you to generate quality work. Pay no attention to an executive who is always urging you to hurry up. In the end, your talent will outshine theirs. Don't be surprised if you're asked to replace this bigwig after they fall short of the mark. You can't create long term security by rushing projects through the pipeline. Rome wasn't built in a day and the same principle holds for your legacy.

Be ready to follow a dynamic expert's lead. By sticking close, you'll acquire some valuable skills. Pay careful attention to the way this sophisticate uses diplomacy and humour to get their way. You're a straightforward person who prefers the direct approach when dealing with people. Unfortunately, many people are intimidated by these methods. They'd rather be wined and dined. It can't hurt to try this tactic with difficult clients, colleagues and relatives.

When it comes to romantic impulses, you'd rather keep your feelings to yourself. Discussing these emotions makes you feel cheap and tawdry. You hate giving people fodder to speculate about your private life. Although your discretion is admirable, it can sometimes cause pent up emotions. That's where your creativity can be useful. Pour your sentiments into a piece of writing, painting or craft project. It will be a relief to have this outlet. Don't feel you have to share your work with others.
