Sometimes you have to be blunt to trigger change. Be honest with a leader who has lost their way. You shouldn't be rude, but you do need to be direct. Give a truthful assessment of their strengths and weaknesses. Inform this executive of the changes they must make to avert disaster. Support your claims with as many facts and figures as you can find. This will make it difficult to argue with your logic. This isn't a personal vendetta; it's a quest for improvement.

Stop analysing a problem and make a decision. Trust your instincts, even if logic tells you to take the opposite path. A close relative is a lot more vulnerable than you realise. By extending an olive branch, you'll heal a breach that has held you apart for many years. Nobody will think you are weak for mending this broken fence. On the contrary, they'll admire your generosity of spirit. Strength can be shown in a variety of ways, not just force.

You have no problem parting ways from conventional wisdom. In fact, you're proud to be a rebel. Onlookers will wring their hands and try to change your opinion, but their protests will be in vain. You're determined to lead a life that is reflective of your values. Giving lip service to conventional ideas has no appeal for you. Instead, you'd rather convert others to a new way of life. This way will allow for a wide array of differences and a great many tastes.

Your strong desire to succeed causes you to break away from the crowd. Instead of following orders, you'll develop new projects. Although you don't realise it, many people support your ideas and will work behind the scenes to put them in place. They find your unique blend of compassion and strength inspiring. Continue to obey your instincts. Soon, you will be offered a prominent role or executive position and you can start making things happen.

Spearheading educational reform is important to you. You hate seeing people's creativity stifled. Under the present regime, it's difficult for students to develop their raw talent. Take this opportunity to put a new system in place. This way of learning should encourage young people to expand their horizons and make mistakes along the way. Of course, discipline and rules are necessary to any school. Still, they should be designed to keep order, not punish originality.

You're very good at finding new uses for outmoded materials. If you want to redecorate your house, head for an antique or junk shop. You can find some wonderful furniture and artwork that can be renovated for your purposes. If you're not sure how to upholster, cover, or refinish pieces, check out some books on the subject from the library. You'll create a whole new look for very little money. This could be the beginning of a lucrative side business.

Encourage your best friend, business partner, or lover to become more independent. The sooner your cohort learns to do certain jobs for themselves, the happier your relationship will be. You've always taken great pride in presiding over certain areas of this union. Lately it's become a struggle to do all this work yourself. Being able to switch duties will take a great deal of stress from your shoulders. It will also give you a newfound appreciation of your partner.

Overhauling your health regimen will increase your strength and energy. It may be necessary to avoid certain foods and types of exercise. Consult a fitness expert before embarking on a new regime. Being able to tailor a programme to your body's unique needs is critical to your success. If you've been bored and listless, learn a skill. Stimulating your intellect will keep depression at bay and make you more optimistic about the future.

Your unique creative talent garners fame and acclaim. Someone who admires your skills will make a romantic overture towards you. If you're single, you'd be wise to encourage these gestures. The two of you will make a very happy couple. Are you already in a relationship? Be proud you continue to arouse passionate feelings in others. Then do something special on behalf of your partner. Take your amour on an adventurous trip.

Having an unusual household shouldn't be a source of embarrassment. These days, the definition of a family is becoming wider and wider. The important thing is your domestic arrangement is a reflection of your values. Making room in your household for a quirky relative or roommate will be lots of fun. It will also make your daily life a lot more stimulating. You enjoy talking about books, movies, and politics with this newcomer, for their ideas are unusual and inspiring.

You're restless and eager for a change. Taking an impromptu trip will revive your spirits and put you in the path of love. Don't be surprised when an intelligent admirer starts following you around like a devoted puppy. Their youthful enthusiasm reminds you of a time when you thought anything was possible. By joining forces, you'll have the courage to return to a hobby that gave you great pleasure as a youngster. It's never too late to revive a dream.

Changing the way you do business will be profitable. If you've always wanted to work from home, now is the time to begin. You're much more productive when you're able to control your environment. Being able to work during unconventional hours will boost your energy. If there's anything you hate, it's forcing yourself to be alert when your body's natural tendency is to slow down and rest. Trust your instincts to know when you should be hard at work.
