It’s time to evaluate your situation. There’s something you’ve been working on with another person, either a relationship or a work-related project, and it’s just not moving forward the way it should be. Usually, the best tactic is to keep on keeping on. The idea is that if you continue to chip away at this obstacle, it will eventually crumble. But there’s a time to admit when something is futile and move on, and that time could be today.

You’ve got the number, now make the call! Consider what you want to say for no longer than one minute and then dial that phone. If you’re feeling oddly shy, an e-mail can get your message across.

You’re going to see that there’s more going on than meets the eye, but it might be hard to figure out exactly what that is. Direct questioning won’t help, but watching and waiting should.

So far you’ve managed to float along rather well but now you’re beginning to feel the pricks of ambition. You want more, and you want to earn it. There’s nothing quite like the feelings that come with advancement due to a job well done. Enjoy the motivation.
