You may be acutely aware of your independence today. This understanding of your own autonomy can manifest itself as a need to deal with any challenging issues plaguing your existence in a private fashion. Yet to make the most of your independent spirit, you may want to remain in the company of others. You may discover that it is only when you are making decisions about where to go next and how to proceed that you feel truly self-sufficient. This can be the perfect time to initiate a new project in your workplace or to use your leisure time to consider fresh career options. If you assert your needs and desires today, you will likely feel that you are in full control of your own fate.

The willingness and ability to make decisions represents a large part of human autonomy. When we are seeking independence, our decisiveness can help us assert our individuality and exercise a greater level of control over our own destinies. Since we do not shy away from opportunities to direct the course our lives will take, we are more intimately involved with the unique paths we choose to tread. We find joy in making choices and feel comfortable when at life\'s crossroads. As a secondary result, we can exercise our assertiveness without second-guessing ourselves because we are confident in our ability to hone in on those options that have the potential to enrich our lives in myriad ways. You will assert your independence today by making decisions related to your life in the present and your existence in the future.
