Original Advice
“DO: Schedule emotional check-ins like calendar reminders.”
Make Feelings A Standing Meeting
Your feelings already interrupt you; you just pretend they don’t. They flood your tabs, your jokes, your caffeine drip. You chase novelty to dodge the ache, then wonder why your focus fractures. Stop letting emotions ambush your day like spam calls. Put them on the calendar. Treat them like rent, like laundry, like a meeting you cannot skip. Clock in with your heart before it clocks you.
Structure is not a cage; it’s a dock. Your mercurial mind sails; feelings are weather reports. Time-box them and you get data, not detours. A scheduled check-in turns vague dread into three words and one decision. You won’t drown in it. You’ll rinse, reset, return. Consistency builds signal from noise. Put a name, a number, a next step. Let routine do the heavy lifting.
Cosmic Context
You’re Mercury-ruled: fast, changeable, brilliant. Scheduling feelings gives your air element gravity.
