Someone who counts on you to keep things together for them will be on the phone or at your door in serious need of your talents. Fortunately, you can calm them down especially well today because you have what it takes to get the job done. You have humor, wisdom, and the gift of gab, which the heavens have tossed your way as of early this morning. Better get busy.

You want to do something radical. Whether it’s a solo trip around the world or a new hairstyle, you feel the need to try something new. Make it happen, and don’t let anyone hold you back.

Even if you’re not physically at work, that’s where your brain is likely to be, making you less than exciting company for your partner. Catch up on e-mail (briefly!) or make some notes in order to get it off your mind.

Now that you’ve cleaned things up somewhat, you can actually see what needs to be done next. Instead of focusing on ever smaller details, though, take a step back and be sure you are still headed toward your original goal.
