Four of Wands’ Advice
Personal Growth
You can amplify individual achievements by becoming part of a group. Without decreasing the importance of your own contribution, you’ll achieve more … and have more to celebrate, too.
Relationship
Have you been together for ten years? Celebrate. Have you been together ten days? Celebrate. Do something to recognize the contribution of both partners. Alone? Celebrate yourself.
Career
Assign duties, delegate, and get out of the way. Allow others to contribute, even if their contributions aren’t exactly up to your personal standards. When projects end, thank everyone involved in a meaningful way.
Spirituality
It’s easy to allow any ritual to become empty. Get back in touch with what your rituals were meant to teach or inspire. When you restore meaning to your spiritual practice, every prayer becomes a celebration.
