A somber mood today may have you feeling concerned about fulfilling your responsibilities. But rather than worrying, you may be seriously and earnestly seeking solutions. This may mean researching insurance policies or different types of financial plans in order to provide for your family if unexpected circumstances arise. You may decide to teach others how to step into your roles, either by training an assistant at work, or showing your spouse the steps you take to complete your responsibilities. It may seem like a good idea to schedule regular times of role reversal or rotation so that each member of your team -- whether employees or family members -- knows how to perform all the necessary duties. Today you can make the most of your somber feelings by preparing for any situation.

We all know that life is full of surprises, so it doesn't mean we need to fall into negative thinking in order to prepare ourselves for a change of circumstances. Something wonderful could happen to us, but still necessitate our leaving behind certain responsibilities that someone else would have to take up. We can prepare for this by keeping updated and detailed instructions that are easy for others to find, or we can make a regular schedule of changing from the norm in order to keep us aware and used to change. By preparing and practicing for any possibility, you reduce your worry and create a strong and able team around you today.
