Aim high, but don’t have expectations of yourself or others that you or they can’t possibly meet.  Do your work with patience and with stamina and it will pay off for you in the long run.  Your accomplishments will not be overlooked.  Often, before you can really have peace and wisdom in your relationships, you need to have peace within yourself.  Look at what you feel guilty about, mistakes that you feel you’ve made in your past.  Then forgive yourself and let them go.  It’s the only way you can truly make progress.  There is likely to be a good balance between what is going out and what is coming in.  However, if you need to increase or collect your earnings, you are going to have to ask for what you deserve.  Have courage and pride, and you will not fail.
