When someone you’re close to asks you to do something that seems like it compromises your values today, think twice, especially if they ask you to reevaluate the values that are keeping you from doing what they want you to do. What you should really do is reevaluate why this person is in your life! Just like you get rid of habits that are bad for you, you need to get rid of the people who are bad for you. You don’t have to be mean, but you do have to do what’s right for you.

After weeks of working hard on yourself, you’re noticing results and feeling great. All the attention you’ve been getting has done wonders for your ego. Enjoy it all, but try not to bore others with the details of your health regimen.

Too many emotions, too much responsibility, not enough sleep. That’s a combination for disaster! Before you take it out on your partner, ask yourself what’s really going on. Then take a walk (or a nap) to clear your head.

Your subconscious, it turns out, isn’t quite as active as you assumed. You never imagined in your wildest dreams a financial situation this moody or a portfolio growing so slowly. So stop wasting time staring at the internal picture.
