My Morning Routine with Terry Nazon
Woke up earlier than usual today – around 5:30 AM. Made my crappy instant coffee cause my French press broke last week. Grabbed my phone still half-asleep and opened the horoscope site while waiting for the coffee to kick in.
Here’s what jumped out at me for Virgos today:
- Told me to focus on money stuff that’s been stressing me out
- Said someone at work might try to mess with my plans
- Kept repeating “trust your gut” about 3 times
Figured I’d actually try following this advice for once. Went to my messy desk where bills were piled up. Usually I’d shove ’em back in the drawer but Terry said “tackle financial worries head-on.” So I actually opened all those scary envelopes. Found two late payment notices I’d totally forgotten about. Called the companies right then in my pajamas and got late fees waived just by asking nicely. Wild!
Work Situation Explosion
Got to the office around 9 AM. Mark from accounting immediately marched over holding some report. Started complaining about my project timeline being “unrealistic” – exactly like the stars warned. Normally I’d argue but remembered “trust your gut.” My gut was telling me he’s stressed about quarterly targets. So instead of fighting, I said “What if we adjust phase three instead?” His whole face changed. We actually fixed it in 20 minutes without yelling. The old me would’ve wasted three hours fighting.
Weird Gut Feeling Moment
After lunch, got a call from some “investment opportunity” guy. Sounded great on paper – big returns, low risk. But my stomach literally twisted when he talked about upfront fees. Almost ignored it cause he offered free tickets to a ballgame. Remembered Terry’s “trust your gut” lecture. Said no thanks and hung up. Later Googled the company name + “scam” – turns out it’s under federal investigation. Bullet dodged!
What Actually Worked
- The money advice saved me $127 in late fees
- Not fighting with Mark saved my afternoon
- Trusting my gut saved me from getting scammed
Final thoughts:
Usually these horoscopes are vague but today’s was weirdly specific. Did I make good choices cause the stars said so? Maybe. Or maybe I just paid attention for once instead of rushing through my day blindfolded. Either way, marking this in my journal as a surprisingly useful Tuesday.
