Don't let a rival know that s/he got under your skin. The best way to win this contest of wills is to look like you aren't competing.
You don't think you're overstretched, but guess what? Cut back now while you can and say no to new engagements.
It's time to say good-bye to an association that isn't working. Don't worry. This clears the way for a better one to come along.
A surprise development could do more for you in one stroke than what you've been trying to accomplish for months. Be wary, not worried.
You may not be able to ask for more, but you can ask for something different. Money isn't the only form of currency.
Building slowly has its merits. Overnight successes can be easily overtaken whereas establishing yourself ensures you'll go the distance.
A loved one or friend you've been helping out can finally stand on her own. When she asks how she can repay you, don't answer right away. Tell her you'll get back to her.
A client or customer may not get back to you right away, but you're not of sight or out of mind. Expect good news next month.
An older fellow (perhaps a previous employer?) provides a valuable introduction. This calls for more than a thank-you. Throw him some business.
There's nothing wrong with showing a little vulnerability. It piques people's interest. Ironically it's your show of strength that keeps them at arm's length.
