My horoscope for today reads:

You’ll be in the middle of all the action today, because no one else will be up to the task of directing people the way you are! You can’t wait to be the boss, and you are ready to be the boss! Your quick mind, boundless energy and direct manner of speaking impress people more than you realize — they are waiting for you to tell them what to do and how to do it. Be a gentle leader instead of a tyrannical one. You have the capability to inspire people, so don’t waste your energy.

Hmmm…the first part sounds right. I’m very good at telling people what to do, and I have a new workshop I’m starting up: The Plotting Bootcamp. So it fits that I’ll be interacting rather than crawling into my mole hole to work.

The last part bugs me…can I be tyrannical? Better not ask my sister because she’d say yes, but I thought I’d learned to temper my dictatorial style of leadership long ago. Will have to remind myself constantly today to tread softly.
