Finding ways to save money isn't brain surgery so why do you keep falling at the first hurdle? You may have decided for instance not to buy items you don't need but somehow you keep returning home with exactly that! Just because something is in a sale, it doesn't mean you have to snap it up. You can save money by spending less but you must be disciplined about it.

Have you noticed the affect your voice, body language and listening skills have on your relationships? You feel comfortable with the people you are mixing with now and sure about being able to persuade them to see things through your eyes. It's almost as if you have thought yourself into being confident and it is working. Whatever your goal, you are likely to enjoy amazing results.

If friends are almost forcing you to spend time with them it's because they feel you're in need of a little company. It is entirely possible other people have noticed how withdrawn you are and they're doing their best to draw you out of a retiring mood. It doesn't seem natural for you to be in such a quiet, solitary frame of mind and maybe your friends are right. Let them indulge you.

Friends and workmates want to spend more time with you. The consequence should be an extra busy and sociable day. Even at work, people can't seem to leave you alone and everyone wants your views and opinions. As much as you enjoy being the centre of attention, you might feel a need for some peace later on. The day should end on a relaxed note if you occupy yourself with quiet behind the scene activities.

You could advance your career in leaps and bounds by accepting the help a boss or manager is willing to offer. Bear in mind the saying you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth. Opportunities will be opening up for you these next two weeks to make better use of your natural skills and talents. People are starting to appreciate what you are capable of and there's a wonderful spirit of cooperation within the workplace.

Working or studying abroad or working alongside people from a distance is one way to enrich your life and education. Instead of dreaming about it, look into the possibility of travelling to a land you've always wanted to visit. Not only will a journey overseas broaden your horizons it will feed your curiosity and enhance your knowledge about different ways of life. There's a strong need to experience something new and different now.

If you have skills that are going rusty or you aren't using your knowledge to its full potential, change this now. Let others know you're capable of more. Be clever and bring your abilities to the notice of people in power in a subtle and understated way. The good thing about today is you will be able to rely on other people for their backing, should you require it. Seek advice from someone in education should you wish to gain new knowledge.

Close relationships and partnerships may need more attention than usual and more patience too! A situation might call for you to be ultra tolerant and serene when you really feel like giving someone a piece of your mind. You won't always understand why a partner says and does the things they do and you can't expect to always identify with them. Any effort made to support them despite you being against their plans will be appreciated and repaid in the course of time.

As an alternative to giving in, seek solutions to a job matter which makes you feel uneasy or unsettled. This may be connected with your relationship with a new colleague or business contact or new responsibilities that interfere with your usual routines. If another person is involved, start the discussions early in the day. You might be surprised to find other people will be open about their thoughts and equally as keen to listen to what you have to say.

You might find yourself wondering what you really want in the future. The ideas you come up with could be totally different from anything you've aimed for before. Be creative. Imagine several different scenarios of satisfying situations. Plot out a schedule that might take you to this goal and make sure you include room for fun, family and relaxation.

There is a lot going on of interest, within your own four walls. Your home may not be a relaxing place to be in at the moment but you have ample chance to practice your creative skills. Domestic projects will call for imagination and inventiveness. Any problems cropping up will be easily overcome. Try to focus your energy on more light hearted events at the end of the day.

Your thoughts are lively; you come over to others as being vivacious and bubbly and life is fun now. These next two weeks you are bound to feel the benefit of a new and productive phase. Your imagination and creativity will be enhanced. You find it easier to discuss your ideas with others and it will be easier than you anticipated to turn some thoughts into reality.
