Note to self...

On weeks that start with Holidays... Garbage doesn't go out on Wednesday night... 2nd note to self... DO NOT accept coffee from well-meaning co-workers or clients after 1pm.... or risk sitting around the house awake at 3 am....GAK.... Virgo (August 23-September 22) You don't want to have to answer to the past, right? It's a waste of time. Nor do you even feel like rebelling against the way things used to be or rejecting the stale old expectations people would like to hold you to. I don't blame you, Virgo--especially now, as you enter the frontier zone where the possibilities are limited only by your imagination. The way I see it, it's your sacred duty to shake off all the sacred duties from yesteryear as you go forth to create the future. * SACRED ADVERTISEMENT If I ever produce a self-help manual called The Reverse Psychology of Getting Everything You Want, it will discuss the following paradoxes: a. People are more willing to accommodate your longings if you’re not greedy or grasping. b. A good way to achieve your desires is to cultivate the feeling that you’ve already achieved them. c. Whatever you’re longing for has been changed by your pursuit of it. It’s not the same as it was when you felt the first pangs of desire. In order to make it yours, then, you will have to modify your ideas about it. d. Be careful what you wish for because if your wish does materialize it will require you to change in ways you didn’t foresee. Review your own life and identify experiences that exemplify these four principles.
