Few things are as seductive as a sob story – especially when they come with large, saucer-like eyes. Don’t fall for it.
You’ll get some of what you request, but not all of it. It’s still nothing to turn your nose up at. That wish-list of yours was longer than a Dostoevsky novel!
You’re unusually touchy about a personal matter. But if loved ones can’t discuss what’s going on with you, then who can? You can unwind with them. They won’t bite.
A little exaggeration works wonders. You may be uncomfortable bending the truth, but it’s hyperbole in service to a good cause.
Someone who was reluctant before is now gung-ho. That’s a quick turnaround. Check to make sure everything’s kosher.
Throw out those carefully rehearsed lines you walked in with. Spontaneity is your greatest asset today. Be ready to work with what’s in motion.
