One page to the right person

You can see the structural problem while everybody else argues about this week’s symptom, and the temptation is to be clever about it in a meeting. Do the unglamorous version instead: one page, to the one person who can act on it, before Friday. Being right slowly is worth considerably more than being clever quickly, and this is the week that difference shows up.

Love

You have been arguing the principle with somebody who wanted comfort, and you were right, which has helped neither of you. Try the warm version this week without withdrawing the point. Being kind and being correct are not in competition, whatever the argument appeared to prove at the time.

Work and money

A group thing has been quietly relying on you and nobody has said thank you, which does not bother you until suddenly it does. Notice which of the two you are feeling before you send anything on Wednesday. If you want out, say so at the start of the week rather than the end.

Body and mind

Your head does not switch off on demand and the evenings are where that shows. Something with a rhythm to it, a swim, a familiar route, a bike with a working light, empties it faster than lying still and trying. Mend the small broken thing you keep routing around.

The day to watch

Wednesday, before you send anything at all
