Too Much

A phone call and a couple of good chats - a few more insights and a few more lessons learned.  It's been a rocky week, ups and downs are either very high, or very low, am trying hard to maintain when they reach the lows.  The gym yesterday helped.  Two walks with the pup today helped as well.  Too many weird dreams last night, so I didn't sleep well.

Tossed the coins.  My iChing for today:

28. Too Much

Too much.
The roof-beam is sagging.
It is beneficial to have a goal to move to.
Progressing.

Something is too much for this situation. One better make a plan to do something about it, and make it more robust. There is progress.

(No changing lines.)

Overview: Ta Kuo is very much a warning. It tells you that a current situation has gone beyond your control and this may mean withdrawing from the situation completely. Failure to do so will spell disaster. In some cases the situation may be be capable of still being resolved but in most it will not. The damage is already done. However upsetting it may be it is time to cut your losses.

I hate it when it says "there is progress".  Because no there isn't.  Or maybe that it isn't fast enough for me.  Or because I don't see it.  Its not easy being one able to give advice;  but I was doing some reading about 'fixing people' and found that I am "task oriented .. methodical .. and contemplative."  Which means I'm the opposite of a people oriented person.  I like to set a goal, then set down the steps to get there, and start doing them.   That's me.  And its impossible for me to "fix" people oriented types into doing things my way.  We all may have the same ultimate goal, but we go about it in different ways.   It's when we let each of our ways be used in strengths that we become successful as a team, or in a relationship.  I'm glad I found that today; it helps in knowing how to deal with others.
