Healthy dissent is critical if you ever want to make your group’s process better. Those in charge are wise enough to value good criticism, and they can handle your honesty, so let them have it today. After all, how can they fix something when no one will let them know what’s not working right? Stop taking the rules at face value and look at things more objectively. You’ll soon have some good suggestions about how to make things better. Share them and you’ll be more valuable.

Spend some time cooking a dinner you can share. Don’t have a dinner companion in mind? That good-looking person who just moved into your building would probably enjoy your hospitality.

Hanging out with another person can be lovely, but it can also take a lot of energy. You need some TLC and lots of silence. Take time to commune with your soul before you plug yourself back into your relationship.

You need new ideas, and fast. Just needing to come up with something can block your ability to think. Take a deep breath and remind yourself to start small and light, and go from there.
