You're surprisingly good at looking busy while you daydream as much as possible. Allowing your mind the freedom to wander helps you formulate new ideas for the future. You aren't sure how you got into your current predicament but you don't feel you're in a place that's right for you. Very soon you will be gone again without ever knowing what happened or why. You've just taken a wrong turn in life and you're looking for a way to get back on the right track.

You're starting to see reoccurring patterns in a close relationship. You can almost predict what's going to happen next. A friend or partner is about to complain about life becoming too stale or that you're working too hard and they never get to see you. You might wonder if you're all just a little too comfortable to be bothered to make an effort to change things. That's why you will surprise everyone by the suggestions you're about to make today.

One of the biggest mistakes you can make is to over react to the people or situations around you. When you find yourself about to respond without thinking, count to ten. You aren't doing yourself any favours trying to get a sense of self worth from how you see the world reacting to you. If anyone makes comments that shatter your self esteem, you're with the wrong people. Don't be influenced by another person's criticism of your efforts. Believe in yourself.

Using the simplest of logic could help you find the solution to a current predicament. You've already ran through various scenarios in your mind and the more you think about it the more the problem seems to grow. Take a break, get some fresh air and return to it with a clear head. Go right back to square one as there is something you have overlooked and once you spot it, everything will fall neatly into place.

Wait until new plans and proposals take on a definite shape before you decide whether or not you like them. Someone should have waited until they'd thought about it more, before putting forward their suggestions. Although there will be flaws, underneath it all, their ideas do have potential. If you're single a new admirer may not be the hottest thing on two legs but their beauty will come from deep within and exercise an unusually strong hold over you.

Be who you want to be and stop worrying so much about everyone else's opinion. Block out any thoughts about how other people might react or what they may say once you make a decision. Be firm when you announce your plans and let others see you aren't going to change your mind. Stand your ground. It's remarkable how the world changes before your eyes and seems so much clearer when that happens.

You are annoyed with yourself for not being there for someone when they needed you. You're aware of all they're going through and you can put yourself in their shoes and feel what they feel. It's hard to say when exactly, their issues became your issues. You can be totally sure nothing is going to change and they're starting to rely on you too heavily. If you don't soon call it a day, it will all start to take over your life.

Be careful what you wish for as fantasy could be easily turned into reality. You might decide there is something to say for raw attraction when it's impossible to ignore the chemistry between you and someone you're introduced to. If you already have a partner, have you taken into account and weighed up all the risks? Remember that sexual attraction can be as dangerous as it is delicious! Some temptations should be ignored.

You want to see results but other people can't keep up with you; what's all the rush about? Impatience makes you want to reach your goals but the more haste, the less progress you will make. It's like trying to diet and cut down on your alcohol intake at the same time. You're more likely to cave under the pressure and start opening a bottle of wine while enjoying a bar of chocolate and promising you'll make a fresh start again tomorrow!

Is your passion misplaced because other people don't understand your hopes and aspirations? You care about the things you get involved in. A fund raising effort for a worthy cause may mean limiting your social life for a short while. It isn't difficult for you to see what should be given the priority. Missing out on a few parties and get togethers is hardly something to get bothered about but if a friend is missing you, perhaps you can persuade them to join your campaign!

You're tired of trying to meet another person's expectations of you. Why should you have to live up to how they define your behaviour should be? A parent, partner or senior colleague is quick to point out how you disappoint them or what they feel you should be doing to make your life successful. Trying to please them doesn't always please you. It's time to live up to your own definitions of who you are and what your goals should be.

Guard against tripping over someone while sending text messages or checking emails on your mobile. Think about keeping the technology side of life and your real life separate. Mixing the two can mean you will miss out on the fun and richness of new experiences because you're too busy keeping tabs on electronic messages. You aren't likely to suffer any withdrawal symptoms if you switch off for just a few hours!
