horoscope for the week

courtesy of freewill astrology.

i stole this idea from a friend of mine. but i love rob brezny's horoscopes... they are usually so damn accurate it's scary. this week is no different.

SCORPIO (week of october 28, 2004)
To be silent when it's time to speak is a weakness, says a Persian proverb. I say it's also a bad idea to speak when it's time to be silent. In the coming week, one of these rules or the other will always be in effect for you, Scorpio. To know which one is in ascendancy at any given time, you'll have to be very alert; conditions will be shifting constantly. Make it your goal to be so attuned to the fresh truth of each new moment that you will always express yourself when the time is ripe, and shut up when it isn't. Halloween costume suggestions: a pythoness or fortune-teller; a talking mime or a silent clown who carries around chalk and a portable chalkboard to communicate; Triumph the Insult Comic Dog with a muzzle.

this is exactly the lesson i have been learning in terms of my career. i do not have a problem with being silent when it's time to speak... but i DO have a problem with not knowing when to just shut the fuck up. this is something i've been very consciously aware of for the past few weeks. so interesting.

anyone else have a good one this week?

The best business advice I ever got was this.

Whenever you are engaged with a boss, co-worker or in a meeting.

Speak last, speak softest and speak the shortest.
