Illegitimi non carborundum: 7.11.10

Freud once said, "Love and work are the cornerstone of our humanness." Whether or not he said this in his treatise on the favorable attributes of cocaine or one of his many Oedipal ramblings is not important. The man who also said, "Sometimes a cigar is just a cigar" knew us better than we think we know ourselves. This week, Gemini, trust in the good Doctor to know your latent desires and think of these two foundational aspects of life as equally important...and equally in need of your urgent attention. Take it a step further and equally apply the same principles to them both. When you strategize about how to improve your professional life, goodness knows you won't be hustling your resume over to 7-11. So when you think about improving your love life, don't sell yourself short either. Sure, there are ways to succeed in business without really trying and it's so easy to fall in love. But in reality, finding that "perfect" job and meeting the "one" really may take some effort. Throw yourself into the search for both with all the aspiration, ambition, energy, skills, and experience that you know make you the best qualified candidate. And remember, never let them see you sweat.
