Cynicism is the easy way out, and it helps no one in the end. It’s way too easy to grouch about how hard life is now, but when was it ever easy? It’s still a deeply interesting world, and part of what keeps you engaged is solving all those problems. Try a new attitude of amused detachment instead of taking every bump in the road as a comment on you, and then see just how much simpler life can be!

Even if you only go to your regular places, there’s a very good chance you’ll meet an intriguing new person. Be on the lookout, and expect your ordinary day to become quite extraordinary.

All relationships need to grow and mature, and yours is certainly no exception. Find a way to toss out some old habits and pave the way for new sweetness between you.

Income and fun are a great combination, it’s understood. But if you have to settle for income alone, look for fun in other places. You can’t afford to wait until everything is just the way you want it, on either front.
