So I was scrolling through my usual Monday morning emails, feeling that “ugh, another week” vibe. You know how it is. Then I remembered this career horoscope thing I stumbled on last month – figured why not give it a spin?
Digging Up The Predictions
First, I dug through my bookmarks like a squirrel hunting acorns. Found that Leo forecast page buried under three layers of cat videos. The main points jumped out:
- Stop overthinking decisions – just pick a path
- Talk to someone senior before Friday
- Drop one time-wasting habit cold turkey
My Game Plan
Okay, real talk: “senior person” made me sweat. I hate bothering busy people. But I grabbed my coffee, opened Slack like it was a horror movie jump-scare, and typed to my boss: “Got 10 mins this week to pick your brain?” Sent it before I could chicken out. Ding! He replied “3pm today” – victory!
For the time-waster? Easy. I deleted TikTok off my phone right then. That app’s like digital cocaine. Already feel 20% less zombie-ish.
The overthinking part? Had a client proposal due. Normally I’d rewrite it six times. This time I set a 90-minute timer, wrote one draft, and hit send. Felt like skydiving without a parachute.
Midweek Check-In
Wildest thing happened Wednesday. That rushed proposal? Client loved it. Boss meeting? He mentioned a project in Q4 that perfectly fits my skillset. And no TikTok? Read half a book already. Astrology or coincidence? Who cares – it’s working.
Friday Reflections
Biggest lesson? Simple doesn’t mean easy. Telling someone “just do it” sounds dumb till you actually jump. That astrology page didn’t magically fix my life – but it gave me a nudge to stop blocking my own shots. Still keeping TikTok deleted though. My brain says thanks.
