Do You Take, But Never Give, Leo?

Avoid this big Leo work blunder…

Leo is outgoing and popular. You’re happy when, like your ruler Sun, the world revolves around you. A peerless socializer, you can always find the right people to help you finish a project or get a job, promotion, or raise. You have knowledge and advice to spare, and you love it when people come to you for guidance. You motivate them, and they admire your impeccable ethics and integrity.

Remember that it’s a two-way street. Listen respectfully to alternate opinions or if someone questions your ideas. You might learn something. Share the workload and the credit and everybody wins!

Feeling Caught Up, Virgo?

Don’t get stuck in analysis paralysis…

There’s a reason people bring you their knottiest problems. You’re the only one who can cut through the tangle, tease apart the issues, and knit the whole thing back together. If only Virgos ran our national security organizations, all those dots would have been connected long ago. Easy when it’s someone else’s problem, isn’t it? But you might stymie your own best efforts. Do you only act when you’re sure you’ll succeed? Do you consider every conceivable outcome a dozen times? Don’t wait until every single duck is lined up in order by color, size, and quack—act!

Take Care of Your Money, Virgo

Avoid this financial blunder…

You manage your money well. You question every purchase—especially big ones—to make sure it fills a practical (or fun) need. Your caution keeps you debt-free. Generous to others, do you extend the same benevolence to yourself? Buy yourself a reward now and then. It doesn’t have to be expensive! That bigger-picture view that can help you find love can also work with finances. You have the nickels and dimes under control. Now look ahead a decade or more. Do you have an emergency fund? Retirement account? It’s never too early to start saving for your future.

What’s Your Work Fate, Libra?

How to find your true passion and reach your potential…

As an air sign, you’re a thinker. You’re curious, restless, and multitalented, so you might find it hard to settle on just one career. You have the gift of being able to see all sides to every opportunity, but that same skill can also keep you from making up your mind!

Get some concrete career help with self-assessment tests found in books and online. With a better understanding of your values, interests, and personality, you can find not just a job but a calling that suits you to a T!

Are Libras Boss Material?

Find out if Libras have what it takes to be leaders…

Perhaps you’ve thought about working for yourself. Entrepreneurs have to be self-confident, brainy, good at building teams, excellent at communicating—and what sign does that describe? There’s no dispute that you are the veritable master of networking!

But entrepreneurs or any self-sufficient leaders also have to be quick and versatile decision makers (no dithering). They have to exude self-confidence (no inferiority complex). And they have to fight for what they want (no avoiding confrontation). If you can do all that, then yes, you can be top dog!

Are Libras Naive About Money?

How to balance the good life with practicality…

As a Libra, you love the finer things in life—lovely décor, fashionable clothes, beautiful objects, fine food. And there’s nothing wrong with that. Nothing, that is, unless you go into debt in order to buy them!

Fortunately, for you, paying interest on debt is like setting a match to a stack of bills, so you do your best not to overspend. Your forte is balance, of course, so put it to good use. You can enjoy the good life and still have enough put by for a comfortable retirement!

Could You Run the Show, Sagittarius?

Be a big boss…

You were born to manage. At least that’s what you keep telling yourself. Is it true? You’re a “big picture” person who’s logical and practical. You’re energetic and fun loving. You generously share your time and knowledge. You motivate and inspire. But that energy can turn into scattered procrastination if you don’t stay focused. You’re so fair-minded that it’s hard for you to delegate tasks you wouldn’t do yourself. You don’t micromanage, but you must be able to help employees who ask for it. If you can channel your energy and keep moving forward, you can be a manager!

Why Capricorns Are Top Employees

The true secret to Capricorn’s success…

Sure, everyone knows Capricorns work hard. They are willing to put in any time and effort a job takes, they want to make sure it’s perfect. Deadlines and meeting (if not exceeding) specifications are non-negotiable. But their best asset is often overlooked.

Capricorns are extremely creative. They are able to focus in on details others miss, they can think on their toes so they come up with some amazingly unique and impressive ideas, and they can also step back and see how their ideas work (or won’t work) with everything else. Capricorns should be given more time and allowance to brainstorm and put some more out-there ideas to work!

Will the Universe Provide Enough for a Sagittarius?

Planning on relying on your luck forever, Sagittarius?

You have a lackadaisical attitude toward money. It flows like water through your fingers, yet you always seem to have plenty of it! An impulsive seeker of instant gratification, you’d probably spend your last dollar on ice cream because, well, you like ice cream. You’re ruled by lucky Jupiter, so it always works out, doesn’t it? But that’s no way to plan for the future. Rather than buying everything that strikes your fancy, practice spending less and saving more. Make it mindless. Have a set amount deducted from your pay and sent to your savings. You’ll never miss it!

Are Capricorns Too Hard on Themselves?

Capricorns must avoid committing this self-sin…

Capricorns fear rejection more than just about anything. But are you constantly rejecting yourself? Capricorns are notorious for being their own worst critics. This can be damaging to your work output (you doubt your abilities and overthink), your health, and your reputation. No one likes someone who’s down on themselves—especially someone who claims to be the best. You are the best. Own it!

 

It’s good to celebrate not only your major accomplishments, but your little victories as well. Sometimes you will go through tough times. You may lose an account, a project, or even a job. Little joys are abundant, though. Next time you make even a baby step at work or in your finances, be proud!
