If you want things done correctly, sometimes it’s better to do them yourself instead of relying on secondary sources for help. This is a good time to plan for the future, but you might not be able to solidify all of your plans just yet. It’s a good idea to leave some room open for negotiation anyway, especially where your financial situation is concerned. Find out all you can before you actually make the big move you’re contemplating, but make sure you check your sources.

You have an abundance of choices right now. If the first person that catches your eye doesn’t please you, just wait a moment. You’ve got time to shop around. The right one is out there and waiting for you.

Compromise is the order of the day. It could be something as minor as letting them choose what’s for dinner, but it could extend to bigger things. Be ready to give more than an inch.

Sometimes taking that first step is the hardest. Break it down to something less intimidating than it is. It’s simply the hardest part of your day. Or morning. Or hour.
