You may feel compelled to hold fast to the status quo today in your thoughts, beliefs, and words, as well as your choices and deeds. Even if you are presented with unexpected and potentially rewarding opportunities at work or at home, you will likely turn your attention to practical matters rather than risk making a hasty or irrational choice. Though your careful caution may cause you to inadvertently miss out on certain prospects, the practicality you exhibit in your personal and business affairs can help you identify the opportunities that will facilitate your ongoing growth as an individual. This realistic and sensible attitude can serve you well today, providing you with the footing you need to make wise and gratifying choices about your future.

The act of taking risks seems far less frightening when we have a solid foundation of practical routines and fallbacks established in our lives. Simply knowing that failure will not disrupt our pursuits in any measurable way can give us a wonderful level of confidence. We forge ahead, easily willing ourselves to move beyond the limits of our individual boundaries because the reward we receive for our preparation is the ability to immerse ourselves in the unknown without fear. This sensible approach to the perils of the goal-realization process can ensure that our pursuits embody a balanced fusion of ambition and practicality. Since you feel intensely pragmatic today, you will be more apt to prepare yourself to face the challenges that an uncertain future can bring.
