A refusal to move on is making a bad situation worse. You simply can't make someone like you. Rather than trying to get into their good graces, look for someone who will appreciate your many wonderful qualities. Look for a worthy romantic partner or employer. You've been working very hard but have seen little benefit from these efforts. Rather than double your attempts, make a strategic retreat. Let someone else take over your duties while you occupy yourself with more enjoyable tasks.

You're unable to make up your mind. Don't pressure yourself to make a choice when you feel this way. The Universe will send you more information when you need it. Until then, adopt a 'wait and see' policy. Things are unfolding when they should. Stop heaping yourself with criticism. Holding impossibly high standards impedes your progress. Congratulate yourself with each step you take towards a goal. Feel free to take breaks when you get tired. Rome wasn't built in a day.

Homesickness will prompt you to take a trip. Visiting a place that was once important will give perspective. You've grown a lot since those days. Give yourself credit for all you have accomplished and then build a new dream. You're a work in progress. You've been suffering from sleep deprivation. Establishing a soothing bedtime routine will allow you to drift off into a relaxing slumber. The key is to stay away from electronic screens and devices for a full hour before retiring. Try it and see.

You're disappointed with the outcome of a creative project. Don't be too hard on yourself. Contrary to what you think, this pursuit was not a waste of time. It is a bridge to a much more enjoyable assignment. Teaming up with an artisan is advised. Resist the temptation to blame others for your problems. By taking full responsibility for your situation, you'll be able to improve it. Forgive an injustice, stop dwelling on a setback and look to the future with optimism.

You're bored of carrying out a familiar routine. Venturing in a new direction will be fun but might result in a few losses. Be willing to give up an element of financial security in exchange for fun. It's a good time to take a risk. If you've been passed over for a promotion, it's a blessing in disguise. You would not have been happy in this role. A much better work situation will arrive when you envision exactly what you want from a job.

Excesses are catching up with you. It's simply not possible to push yourself as hard as you did when you were younger. Treat your body with respect. Eat nutritious meals, take gentle exercise and never tax your system with toxic substances. If you're travelling, try making yourself as comfortable as possible. Layers of clothing will allow you to adapt to all kinds of weather. It's also a good idea to wear sensible walking shoes instead of fashionable, but not so comfy footwear. Pack some healthy snacks, too.

You're jealous of a loved one's good fortune. That's because you are not acknowledging the Universe's infinite bounty. Just because someone is prospering does not mean you will not. Your financial fortunes will improve when you celebrate other people's prosperity. An agreement is no longer working to your advantage. If you can't renegotiate the terms, see if you can pay a fine to end the contract. Regaining your freedom will make you feel like you're walking on air. Things change; don't apologise.

The end of a relationship is cause for grief. Give yourself a chance to become accustomed to your new way of life. You've always been very resourceful. Adopting a bigger work load won't be a problem, but becoming more solitary will require some adjustment. Try being more supportive of your wishes and dreams. There's nothing wrong with wanting a life of comfort and privilege. Whenever you are consumed by a sense of yearning, know it's your subconscious pressing yourself to make some positive changes.

It's important to know the difference between being supportive and smothering. Give a loved one space to make their own mistakes. When they fall short of their goals, let them find a solution instead of jumping to get them out of trouble. Practice common sense preventative measures to maintain good health. One of the best ways to stave off illness is to wash your hands thoroughly every hour. Avoiding sugar can also keep your immune system working at optimal levels.

A mischief maker is wearing on your nerves. While you appreciate a good joke, their antics are undermining your progress. Tell them to stop wasting your time. If they ignore this boundary, file a report or break off the relationship. You have better things to do. A child or pet is acting up. Instead of becoming frustrated by their behaviour, look for ways to connect in heartfelt ways. Love and appreciation are the greatest reformers. They encourage changes that work to everyone's advantage.

Unhappiness at work is a sign that changes must be made. You have more power in this situation than you realise. Rather than subjecting yourself to further abuse from your employer, ask what you can learn from this situation. Give yourself the respect you desire. Spending too much time at home will cramp your style. Force yourself to go out more, even if it's just to meet a friend for coffee. The more you mingle, the easier it will be to attract golden opportunities.

Overindulging in creature comforts creates problems. There is nothing wrong with enjoying sensual delights when you temper these treats with work. Get into the habit of giving yourself rewards for setting goals. This will keep you motivated, productive and balanced. Minor distractions could keep you from being as efficient as you would like. Get into the habit of turning off your mobile and staying off the Internet until you've finished a series of tasks. Prolonged concentration brings greater efficiency.
