Turn a deaf ear to the sweet-talkers around you today. They want something in return for all their flattery, and it’s probably not something you feel at liberty to give. You’ve got to make it clear to people that you can’t help them with what they want even if you know it probably means saying goodbye to all their positive attention. But positive attention for ulterior motives isn’t legitimate, so what is it really worth?

This situation in front of you could be the greatest opportunity ever or a half-baked scheme that ends up in complete disaster. The end result depends on your approach and ability to read the situation for what it is. Red flags? Back out immediately.

You can have freedom in a committed relationship. That’s how you ensure that it works! Making a life together doesn’t mean you have to give up everything (or everyone) you knew before you and your partner met.

Extra money shouldn’t be considered money to burn. You should put it to good use instead of spending it frivolously. That includes helping others. Being socially useful can be as valuable to you as spending on your own health and wellbeing.
