Avoiding responsibility will do more harm than good. People are depending on you to complete a job or submit some paperwork. Do what is expected of you as quickly and efficiently as possible. If you promised to watch someone's pets, do a good job. Beware of talking endlessly about inconsequential subjects. It isn't necessary to fill in the gaps of a conversation. Learning to sit in contented silence will improve your relationships. Just being together can be wonderfully reassuring.

Don't be embarrassed if you were misled by a group, organisation or friend. Your trusting nature has attracted lots of good fortune. This one instance is atypical of your experience. The important thing is to recognise you made a mistake. Break ties and move on. Worrying about money will only make a difficult situation worse. When you want more income, think about the areas in life where you abundant. This will unlock the flow of prosperity into your life.

It's fine to have fantasies about fame and fortune. If you're disappointed that these dreams have not manifested, make a few changes. Get the training you require to advance. Work as an apprentice, get a degree or move into your desired industry. Your family resents your selfish behaviour. Recently, you've decided to devote more time to your own happiness. As a result, you have less time for them. Keep putting your needs first, but factor in some quality time for each member of your household.

Stop putting your faith in a celebrity guru. The answers you seek are within yourself. Spending a few moments in quiet contemplation will result a breakthrough. Instead of wandering around in the dark, you'll become clear about what to do and where to go. A neighbour or relative who is in hospital could use some support. Be as cheerful as possible when visiting them. Bring them a book or card that makes them smile. Play some cards or do a puzzle together.

It's time to assume more responsibility with a joint financial account. Instead of throwing out unopened bank statements, review them with a fine-toothed comb. You will spot a mistaken withdrawal or fee that should not be there. Call customer service to have the error corrected. Friends are trying to put you in the middle of a silly argument. Do not get drawn into this dispute. You're an upbeat person who doesn't want to give your energy to things that make you sad, anxious or frustrated.

You feel rejected by a business or romantic partner. This is incredibly hurtful. If you're going to repair your relationship, you must be truthful. Take your other half out to lunch and explain how their behaviour has been affecting you. Propose alternatives. Your boss blames you for a problem that isn't your fault. Don't get defensive. Listen to their accusations calmly. Do not apologise for something you haven't done. Eventually, your supervisor will realise how ridiculous they sound and slink away.

Resist frittering away time at work. Gossiping with colleagues will undermine your productivity. It will also annoy your employer. Before starting your duties, picture yourself finishing tasks that have been hanging over your head for weeks. This simple technique will be very effective. Just because you were raised a certain way does not mean others should follow in your footsteps. Variety is the spice of life. Be open to learning from someone who has a totally different set of values and priorities.

You feel lonely and abandoned. Rather than waiting for the phone to ring, do something nice for yourself. Splash out on some new clothes, visit a salvage yard or restore a beautiful piece of furniture. It's easy to attract admirers when you're having fun. An intense relationship will come to an end. This makes you sad, but it can't be helped. You've outgrown each other. Being on your own has many benefits. Instead of checking to see what others think of your plans, you can act on your natural impulses.

A family member who has been struggling with emotional problems must be confronted. Ignoring their disturbing behaviour is making a bad situation worse. Encourage your relative to get professional help. They'll greatly benefit from working with a compassionate counsellor who specialises in this area. Quarrels with your best friend or romantic partner are rooted in frustration. You've been neglecting each other. Clear your schedules and take a relaxing trip together. Even visiting a nearby city for a day can be therapeutic.

Be honest when someone asks for your opinion. Pretending you like something that you find distasteful will cause people to question your judgement. If nobody wants to know what you think, remain silent. A neighbour or relative will appreciate your diplomatic stance. Your physical and mental health are intimately related. When you're tired, it's a sign you are obsessing over problems. Turn your attention to routine tasks that are pleasant and easy to do. After folding laundry, sweeping the kitchen or rolling dough, you'll feel much better.

Have you been spending money like it's going out of style? It's time to take a more deliberate approach. There's nothing wrong with treating yourself to the finer things in life. When you do decide to indulge yourself, invest in prolonged pleasure. You've been having a great time, which has depleted your energy. Rather than accepting every invitation, be more selective about how you spend your leisure time. There's nothing wrong with staying home to rest, relax and recharge your batteries.

Don't make a mountain out of a molehill. Focusing on a small problem will cause it to grow. It's better to focus your attention on ideas, memories and plans that make you happy. When irritation occurs, imagine your best life. Stop giving your family so much control over your life. Whether they disapprove of your romantic, professional or lifestyle choices, it does not matter. The key is to listen to your heart and obey its call. Eventually, your relatives will realise they can't control you any longer.
