“Never Let them see you Sweat”

You may be experiencing a “lock out” of some sort – from a group, a career path, a job, some physical place or situation. And so, you find yourself prevented entry from areas in your life because of your own actions, the actions of others or circumstances. This could be related to a rejection or a former connection that has gone sour which has put you in an awful way. You may be badly needing to get to that other side of the “gate” as if your very life depended on it. It’s just beyond your reach & the panic is setting in. It’s easy to get carried away with the intense energies created by this situation but being so depressed, stressed or dejected is not making you a candidate for wherever you are trying to place yourself. Disappointments in life happen & you may be unduly hard on yourself for this predicament you find yourself in. This upset will fade in time, so please don’t feel as if it’s the end of the world.

Remaining calm and taking a peaceful approach, especially with yourself, will allow you to think straight enough to plan next steps. Listen to the guidance you get to carry you through this time. Slow down, take a deep breath and relax. Treat yourself to something that brings you back to center. Stressing too hard will burn you out making you good for no one. In regard to others, steady your nerves & stay calm in the face of those you are trying to persuade. Don’t show them how much you need this, no matter how badly.  Just play it cool. Being irrational and making decisions from a desperate & panicked position will not bring the optimum results. Coming off as too needy or desperate will be sensed and will not create the air of confidence you are trying to project. If you are trying to effectively sell an idea, don’t let them see you sweat. Whether trying to land that promotion, succeed in that interview, attract a desirable partner, plead your case, or convince an ally, you’ll have to exude cool poise, competency & aptitude.
