Nothing ventured, nothing gained. That should be your mantra today. To get the most out of life right now, you need to step out and be noticed as much as you can. Venture forth, and don’t let anyone or anything intimidate you into silence. Try to initiate at least four conversations today (preferably with strangers). They don’t have to be long. They just have to be genuine. Don’t waste your charming self by being alone today!

While you usually adore groups (more people to get to know), for now it’s best to stick with a few people, like just one close friend or a date. You’re more flexible and better able to do what you want.

When your relationship isn’t going the way you planned it, you often find yourself fantasizing about a different ending. Make a fresh start by looking at your relationship for what it really is.

It’s hard not to over do it when people are bestowing gifts upon you all day long, but you’ll thank yourself at the end of the day if you do. Or more accurately, you won’t be black and blue from kicking yourself. Even though it’s on someone else’s dime, over indulging takes a toll on you.
