Taking a practical approach to daily tasks is the only way you'll get through the day relatively sane. Resist the urge to try to do three things at once, or you'll end up being frazzled and frustrated. If you've got too much on your plate, divide up your chores over the space of a week. By this time next Thursday, you'll be amazed how much you've accomplished. Meanwhile, take care to promote good relations with your neighbours.

The idea of a job that offers less pay but more satisfaction isn't as daunting as it once was. If you're unhappy in your current position, break into an industry that speaks to your heart. Businesses related to food, luxury items, or art may be particularly appealing to you. You may even decide to work for yourself. Although you crave a job that offers stability, you also enjoy being in charge. Start your own business!

You're finally coming to terms with the fact that it will take a long time to accomplish your goals. Making a long-term commitment to a course of study may feel like a self-inflicted prison sentence at first. However, once you start working, you'll forget all the obstacles that lie between you and the finish line. The secret to your success will be staying focused on the present. Take the first step of your journey today.

Becoming more self-sufficient isn't as scary as it sounds; it actually can be quite rewarding. Cut ties to a person who makes you feel indebted or unworthy. The only way you'll fulfil your potential is by assuming responsibility for yourself. If you haven't ever lived alone, you may want to consider getting your own place. If you are in a committed relationship or have children, grab an hour of private time each day.

Having social ties that support and nurture you is key to your survival. You spend so much time dispensing love and good will that you sometimes forget to ask for these things in return. If your loved ones and colleagues aren't giving you the respect and care you deserve, you may want to form other associations. Join a support group or a club that is devoted to your concerns. Make life less strenuous for yourself.

It's wonderful to be recognised for your contributions, especially when you work so hard. Fortunately, you could be singled out for a job well done today. Your cooperative attitude is greatly appreciated by authority figures, and you could receive a handsome reward as a result of your labour. Take this opportunity to ask for added responsibility. The more aspects of a job you learn, the greater your stature will be.

Bringing legal matters to a satisfying conclusion is possible right now. Take care not to ask for more than you deserve, or you could lose everything. The key to your success is being upright in honest in all things. If you admit you are at fault in certain areas, the authorities will be more apt to believe your story. Bring as much documentation as you can to the proceedings, as proof bolsters any case.

Becoming more intimate with someone who has proven their loyalty brings you much joy. You're not the most trusting person in the world, but when you do give your heart to somebody, it is without reservation. Before you get carried away, think back on failed relationships and recognise your own limitations. By being aware of certain trends, you can avoid past problems and forge a happy future with your partner.

Making a renewed commitment to a love or business arrangement is possible. In the past, you may have been reluctant to join forces with this person, preferring to go your own way. Recently, however, you've seen that being independent has its definite drawbacks. Don't be afraid to make yourself vulnerable to another human being. Until you do, life will seem black-and-white, instead of glorious Technicolor.

Letting go of an old grudge makes you more relaxed and satisfied. Hostility is stored deep within the tissues of the body. You can actually poison your being with hatred if you don't release it. Just because you've forgiven somebody, however, doesn't mean you have to forget the wrongs they've committed. You may decide to release your rage but stay away from the person who caused it. That's fair and wise.

Structured work gives you a sense of inner peace that's been elusive. If you feel like you're at loose ends, pour your energy into a job that has many intricate steps. This will distract you from nagging thoughts that have been undermining your happiness recently. Be sure to celebrate a child's progress in an area that has troubled them before. Even the slightest improvement should be treated like a great victory.

A person who used to push your emotional buttons has very little affect on you today. Perhaps that is because you've done some healing work on yourself. Don't be afraid to stand up to unjust attacks. Taking the path of least resistance has worked for you in the past, but you need to see the benefits of fighting back. Issue some well-timed barbs that will cut your bully down to size.
