When most people think about March coming in like a lion and out like a lamb, they equate it with the weather. But there's another meaning to the saying that isn't weather-related...

"In like a lion, out like a lamb" also relates to the constellations Leo and Aries (a lion and a ram), and where they're positioned in the sky during the month of March.

So, why not think about your own position in the expedite world? Think about where you are now, and where you want to be. What's the best way to get from one to the other?

The most sensible way to go about this is by setting realistic goals. Analyze carefully where you are, paying attention to everything that got you here.

Now, set a finite goal to work toward. Equate it to going on a trip—if you have no destination in mind, how will you know when you get there? Pick somewhere that you want to be, choose a realistic time in which you can get there, and make it stick by putting it on paper.

By positioning yourself for future success with actual goals, you're setting yourself up for positive results.

So no matter what position Leo and Aries are in, you'll be exactly where you want to be.

Good Luck...with YOUR choices....have a great day!...:)

That is a profound thought! It is easy and fun to think about what you would like different or where you would like to be. That is the stuff of daydreams. It is something entirely different to "Analyze carefully where you are, paying attention to everything that got you here."
