It's tempting to give rude answers to someone who keeps disrupting your privacy. At times like these, it's important to remember the big picture. The pest in question is trying to make your life easier. Look past their behaviour and recognise their intentions. Retreating from public view is a mistake. If you're going to resolve an ongoing problem, you must confront the person who has caused it. Tell a relative or neighbour how their bad behaviour is affecting you and ask for it to be stopped.

Failing to get a pay rise or better paid position isn't the end of the world. This is just the Universe's way of forcing you to change course. The conventional path is no longer yielding fruit. You will fare much better earning money from your creative work. A well-intentioned friend could fail to deliver on a promise. Try not to be angry. Putting your faith in an unreliable person is bound to be disappointing. Adopt a more realistic view and only ask help from people who will give it.

You're very distracted, which doesn't win anyone's confidence. If you're going to command respect, you must craft a strategy and follow it through. You can always make minor adjustments when encountering unexpected obstacles. The important thing is to stay focused. Be realistic about your professional prospects. You can't land a high-profile position until you get more experience. Be open to taking an entry level job in your desired industry. Working as an apprentice or intern can also be helpful.

You're tired of being ignored. A flashier rival is commanding the spotlight, making it impossible to showcase your work. It's time to confront this publicity hog. Make it clear you will no longer stand in their shadow. Adopting a more aggressive attitude is critical. Stop insisting you have no marketable skills. You've acquired tremendous expertise. Emphasise it during job interviews. There's nothing egotistical about discussing your accomplishments with a hiring official. If you don't promote yourself, nobody else will.

There's no reason to remain in a group that doesn't represent your values. Things have changed and that's fine. The sooner you detach from this association, the better you will feel. It won't be necessary to issue a lot of angry accusations. A romantic partner has been giving you mixed signals. This doesn't sit well with you. You should know where you stand before moving forward with this relationship. Stop what you're doing and have a heart to heart discussion.

It will be hard to keep your cool with an unreasonable person at work. If you feel your anger starting to mount, step away from the situation and ask a colleague to take over for you. That will be much better than forcing the issue. You're not sure which direction you would like to take with a romantic relationship. Stop putting so much pressure on yourself. Go on a solitary holiday where you can get in touch with your feelings. They are your best guide.

Your refusal to work with someone who irritates you is inhibiting your personal growth. Sometimes the best teachers are the ones we dislike the most. Treat your colleague's boorish behaviour as a lesson. Vow to be polite to everyone, regardless of their status. It will be difficult for a medical professional to pinpoint the source of a health problem. You must undergo several more tests before getting a conclusive answer. Stay positive and hope for the best. An upbeat attitude improves any situation.

Money from an inheritance, insurance refund or legal settlement will be delayed. You'll have to engage a legal professional to sort out this mess. While you wait for the court to render its decision, you must find an alternative source of income. Relying on your romantic partner to pay the bills isn't wise. You're much better off finding a steady job that keeps the wolf at bay. Any work that draws on your organisational skills will yield fruit. What begins as a stopgap measure could become a permanent position.

A close relationship is wearing on your nerves. You yearn to make decisions without consulting anyone else. Doing this will do more harm than good. Have a heart to heart discussion with your best friend or romantic partner. It's time to resolve this festering resentment. Just because you were raised with certain values does not mean you must maintain them. Cultivate a personal philosophy that makes sense for you. Your family might not look like anyone else's, but it's better to be eccentric than miserable.

You're not feeling in the peak of health. Instead of carrying your normal schedule, give yourself a break. Do the bare minimum and devote the rest of the day to leisurely pursuits. Enjoy a movie marathon, listen to music or read for pleasure. You'll get a confusing email in response to a customer service question. Ask for further clarification before making any decisions. There's a good chance the company in question is stalling for additional time. Call their bluff.

Being lured away from a relaxing interlude will be difficult. You would much rather play than work. Neglecting your duties will do serious harm to close relationships. Your nearest and dearest are depending on you to fulfil old promises. Don't let them down. Be realistic about your financial situation. If your current job doesn't pay enough, look for another one. Business opportunities related to fuel, beverages or marketing are worth pursuing. It's time to get paid what you are worth.

You're not getting much support from your family. Instead of abandoning your plans, move forward with them. You've been blessed with an uncanny intuition. Let it always be your guide, even at the risk of disapproval. Your path is unlike anyone else's. That's good. Pursuing a creative opportunity will make your spirit soar. You're not cut out for a conventional job. You'll fare much better by selling your handiwork for a profit. If that means living on a tight budget at first, so be it.
