It takes time to get used to a new face. Relax as you and an associate warm to each other. You’ll soon be carousing like old pals.
You hate to reprimand, but sometimes a slap on the hand is needed to put associates in place. Be forceful and you only have to do it once.
What looks like a demotion is actually a plus. A venture has reached the end of the road. Sometimes you must go down before you can go up.
The burden is on a potential partner to win you over. You want things to work out, but this person must prove worthy first.
Instead of focusing on how things should play out, it might be wise to listen to the other party. You want to engage in teamwork, not a tug-of-war.
An opponent or rival sees the error of his ways. Be smart and have those release forms, court documents, and/or power of attorney papers ready to sign.
