The heavy demands of a new commitment force you to dump an old one. Not the most graceful way to transition from one thing to another but it will do.
Take current assessments with a grain of salt because three weeks from now this gloomy prognosis will look quite different.
Contrary to what you think, people aren’t pushing you out the door. Actually it’s the reverse, but only you can convince yourself of that.
The longer a negotiation is in the works, the better for you. Not only does this safeguard your interests, it also wears down an opponent.
You’re in no shape to engage an adversary, but you may not have to. Puff up your chest and speak loudly. This person will back down.
You ran the numbers over and over and still come up short. Clearly this isn’t the time to press ahead with a purchase. Fall back and try another day.
