Personal Year 1            New Directions: Establish Goals for next 9-Year Cycle

Personal Month 4          See results from self-discipline; get organized; plan

You are looking for ways now to streamline and eliminate non-priority expenses. The future and a sense of security is suddenly looming larger than usual for you. Plans or projects you start now will start paying off towards late summer and fall. You could be in the process of building, repairing, or re-organizing at work or home. Delays may slow you down, but will eventually prove to bring benefits in the long-run. For example, take care and time to review contracts or projects so that you will be able to catch an error or clear up a fuzzy point. DO: Think big, but also be realistic about what you can accomplish. DON’T: Cut corners because you are simply exhausted. KEY: Set three daily goals and do those (e.g., get home in time to prepare a healthy meal, pay a bill, or take a walk after lunch.) If you don’t start balancing your life now, when will you?

Personal Year 2            Associations and Relationships

Personal Month 5          Meet new people of like-mind; stay flexible and curious

Last week's increase in busyness may have you wishing for a breather this week. However, unexpected developments take more time than it first appeared. You could be required to come up with a quick or novel solution to a predicament. If you've analyzed the situation correctly, and moved fast enough, others will be impressed. Don't be surprised if you receive a call out of the blue from someone you haven't seen for awhile, or whom you thought had disappeared for good. This is the time when conflicts or differences of opinion at work or home need to be addressed in a diplomatic and generous manner. DO: Be flexible where you can. DON’T: Try to change anyone.
