Whether you work for a company, have your own business or are in the midst of building your own entrepreneurial dream, to achieve success in our world of 24/7 access demands a lot.
Several of my client readings this month began with an acknowledgement that the relentless pace of daily demands is causing them to feel out of balance, approaching burn out or working at a pace they no longer feel is realistic for the long term. This led to some powerful conversations that began with the prompts: “How can you work smarter, not harder?” “What does being successful mean to you?” “What’s the rush?”
My own business is growing and changing. I am learning and shifting as well.
We are all in this together.
SEVEN OF PENTACLES
What golden nugget does the Seven of Pentacles have for us this month? Read on. . .
Traditionally, when the Seven of Pentacles shows up it’s to acknowledge all of the effort, dedication and time you’ve poured into a project. You’ve been able to carve out a nice niche for yourself with your nose to the grindstone approach. Clearly, your hard work is paying off.
Yes, and . . .
No matter how much you love what you do, there are limits to how hard you can push yourself.
Known as the Lord of Success Unfulfilled, the Seven of Pentacles can have the tendency of perfectionism. It makes me think of the famous quote by Voltaire, “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good.” Or, in other words, trying to make something perfect can actually prevent us from making it good. Perfection is like an illusory unicorn. We’ve all heard about them, but who’s actually seen one in real life? So, if perfection isn’t an option, no worries, go for good instead.
Knowing when to switch gears from that externally driven pressure to a stronger and more centered place can be the difference between success and failure.
At times, Seven of Pentacles energy can feel/be slow. It can test your patience. You may wonder if you will ever see the results you are seeking.
