Focusing on one person and one person alone will be challenging. You feel you want to play the field. Beware of your roving eye or it could get you in trouble. Someone who has demonstrated their loyalty deserves your attention. Instead of wondering what life would be like with someone else, take a few moments to appreciate what you have. If you're single, beware of playing the field too widely. The last thing you want is to break hearts. Be crystal clear about your intentions

Your focus is too narrow. If you want to achieve success in a particular field, don't be so specific. You can get a foot in the door of your desired industry by working as an intern or assistant. Don't worry if your new job has less stature than previous ones. The important thing is to learn a profession from the ground up. Trying to get a job with a whopping starting salary will be an exercise in futility. You have to pay your dues and serve your time to achieve executive status.

A fear of intimacy is making you unhappy. Although you like a lot of variety in your social life, it's important to have a single focus in romance. Stop looking for someone who embodies everything you've always wanted in a partner. Start evaluating individuals on the basis of their unique qualities. This will help you make a love connection with someone who is smart, challenging and funny. Are you already in a relationship? It's time to have a heart to heart discussion with your amour.

Trying to change someone is an exercise in futility. If you're deeply unhappy with a friend or romantic partner, it's time to part ways. Are you simply trying to alter their personality to suit your needs? Then you have to question your own motives. What purpose does this relationship serve in your life? Would it be better to pursue that goal on your own? Nobody likes feeling used. Limit your friends to people you sincerely like. Everyone else should be treated with detached courtesy.

Restless energy is undermining your progress. If you're going to make the most of your leisure time, finish your work early. Set a timer if it helps you stay focused. Someone who questions your expertise wants to take your place. Instead of wasting time on setting them straight, continue to do your job. Actions always speak louder than words. When everyone sees how productive you are, any questions about your ability will vanish into thin air. Establish yourself as someone of substance.

This isn't a good time to splash out on luxuries. Having money in reserve will allow you to cover an emergency expense. Repairs to a computer or car should take precedence over a new outfit. If your sensual side is demanding satisfaction, take a walk through the park. Soak in a scented bath. Listen to uplifting music. You don't have to spend a lot of money to indulge your love of beauty. Your appreciation for colour, form and style will help you recoup a financial loss. Sell some handicrafts.

Instead of going with the flow, take a stand. It's important to define your likes and dislikes. Being cooperative is helpful sometimes, but when you always capitulate, you become resentful. A pushy friend or romantic partner must know where you stand. If you are tired of going to their favourite restaurants or letting them choose which movie you will see, speak up. This might cause some fireworks, but that's good. There's nothing like a spirited argument to clear the air.

You're having a difficult time with commitment. The prospect of entering into a troubled alliance worries you. You'd rather maintain your independence, even if going solo means more work. Don't listen to people who are pressuring you to join forces with an erratic colleague. You've never had much patience for self-centred people. Trying to work with them will be more trouble than it is worth. Anyone who accuses you of being uncooperative is secretly threatened you will thrive on your own.

It's important to be realistic about your romantic prospects. If you have a hard time settling down, you won't attract someone who wants to build a life together. You'll continue to enjoy the dating scene without much long term satisfaction. Do you already have a committed partner? Make a personal sacrifice on your amour's behalf. Continuing to think only in terms of what is good for you will backfire. You have to demonstrate you care about their wellbeing. Put their needs first for a change.

People have a hard time getting to know you. When they try to reach out, they are often rebuffed. That's because you'd rather have a small circle of close friends than lots of casual acquaintances. Be aware how your chilly demeanour comes off. You can't risk offending someone who can help you on the personal or professional front. Developing a friendlier attitude will open doors that have always been sealed shut. You don't have to confide in everyone, but it will help to open up more.

It's important to review how your decisions affect others. Although you're happy with a plan of attack, your relatives or colleagues are critical of it. They want a greater measure of control over their lives. When you impose your needs on the group, resentment will set in. Stop insisting there are only two paths to take. There are other options available, as long as you're willing to take a few steps back and scan the horizon. Keep an open mind.

Jealousy is stopping you from realising your potential. By clinging too tightly to your present role, you won't be able to advance up the ladder to success. Stop worrying about being replaced and be more helpful to newcomers. By showing you are a good mentor, you'll win the approval of the people that matter. It may take some time to get a promotion, so be patient. Continue to give instruction and support to colleagues that have recently joined the team. Persistence pays off.
