Just because someone close has a problem, that doesn’t automatically mean that you have to fix it. The temptation to be nice is constant, but it might be kinder to everyone if you just let people deal with their own problems and try your best not to interfere. This teaches them responsibility, but it also means that you can breathe more deeply and get on with living your life.

If your typical day like today involves a movie rental and pizza, consider meeting pals on the town tonight. If you’re usually a gym-goer, get your workout now at a pickup soccer game. Shake up the routine a little.

Resist the urge to fight against fate. Change is out of your control, so go with the flow. Your partner will appreciate your attempt to be flexible amid unexpected challenges.

Hoping and wishing won’t buy you the winning lottery ticket. Some sweat equity and a shovel are the only two things that will dig you out of the hole you’re in. Stop wasting emotional energy and get to work.
