"If you don't let what you don't know stop you from doing your best in every situation, you will suprise yourself over and over in life..."
- Kelly Cutrone from her book, If You Have to Cry, Go Outside, And Other Things Your Mother Never Told You

Cancer horoscope for Apr 19 2011
Cancer Apr 19 2011
Is there something you wish to accomplish right now, or some dream you wish to fulfill, but every time you think about it you find a lot of reasons why it won't ever happen? Maybe you think it's a fantasy because you don't have the resources or the money, the time, the assistance, or the expertise. The good news is that right now you can fairly easily attain all you need to move forward. The bad news is that the only thing stopping you is... YOU. Get out of fantasy mode and start making things happen. That may sound simplistic, but that's what you need to do.

Cancer horoscope for Apr 3 2011
Cancer Apr 3 2011
Speak up today, Moonchild. You may not want to raise your voice or be assertive because you fear you'll make a fool of yourself. But the truly foolish thing would be to sit back and do nothing when you really need to represent yourself. Ask questions. Explore options. And say whatever it is that you feel you need to say. It would be far better to anger someone by speaking out than to suffer from regret for remaining silent. The ball is in your court, and you have a brief window of opportunity to state your case.

Quote of the Day
“I feel sorry for people who don't drink. When they wake up in the morning, that's as good as they're going to feel all day.”
-Frank Sinatra
Actually, of all places to find a quote, I originally saw this in my Mom's crossword puzzle book. The remaining letters spelled out this quote.
Cheers!

Cancer horoscope for Mar 12 2011
If you recently lost your temper or became flustered and behaved in a way that bothers you - or you said things you should not have said - you have to forgive yourself. You're under a lot of pressure, and you really do have good intentions. You may not know how to handle a recurring situation that tests your patience and your skills. You can do better, but you'll need to learn more to be the absolute best you can be when this situation arises again. The bottom line, though, is that you care. That is obvious, and that's what's most important.

It was time for a (brief) break, at least for one evening.

How We Use Our Phones [infographic]
An interesting infographic I found via popular social media advisor Chris Brogan on Twitter:
Learning About...
Ponzi schemes...of all things.
This article about JP Morgan Banks "involvement" with Bernard Madoff made me want to read more about Ponzi schemes (aka pyramid schemes). Here's the opening paragraph from the New York Times article about them in general:
In a Ponzi scheme, potential investors are wooed with promises of unusually large returns, usually attributed to the investment manager's savvy, skill or some other secret sauce.
See, you can learn new things everyday. J
