There is a very strong need for you to clean your emotional house today. You need to toss out things that are keeping you from moving forward. If you’re still nursing a heartache, that’s one thing, but if you’re still wallowing in self pity or pain, that’s quite another. Let go of the past and focus on your dreams for the future. You’ve been carrying this pain for too long. The fact is you can decide to be happy or decide to be sad. Which will it be?

Keep to yourself early on in the day, and focus on slogging through work. By the time the evening rolls around, you’ll be ready for some social interaction. See what your friends are up to!

Sometimes the only way to learn is by doing. Stop telling yourself that you’ll move this relationship forward when you’re ready. When will that be, exactly? Do first and then educate yourself later.

You’re tempted to go shopping, but you should save instead. And the smell of a good restaurant is leading you by the nose, but you should buckle down and make your own lunch. All of your sacrifices are making you suffer. Consider it the caldron in which you just may emerge an artist.
