Ever wonder what habits might be holding you back, based on your zodiac sign?
Each of the 12 signs has its own strengths and quirks, but let’s be real–nobody’s perfect. Some are too stubborn, overly cautious or chasing perfection, there’s always that one thing we could all work on.
Ready to discover yours?
1. ARIES
Stop living in your comfort zone.
You know what they say about comfort zones—nothing ever grows there. You won’t be able to reach your full potential if you don’t leave yours.
So, do the things that scare you, go after what you want and see your life take a turn for the better.
You’ll never know what you are capable of unless you try.
2. TAURUS
Stop allowing other people to have more say in your life than you do.
Although a Taurus is a stubborn sign in its essence, you are easily influenced by the people you care about.
Even though they mean well, they might not always know what’s best for you.
Listen to everybody but do what your gut tells you. You are there to create your own life and make your own mistakes and your victories should be your reward.
3. GEMINI
Stop being around people who are trying to change you.
You have a dual personality and some parts of it can be dark while other parts shine their brightest.
Like everyone, you have your flaws but you make up for them with your virtues.
You need people in your life who accept you just the way you are. Don’t seek their approval and don’t care about what they think; just be your own person.
4. CANCER
Stop ignoring the negative in people.
It’s in your nature to search for the best in people. You concentrate so much on the good that you are unable to see that not everyone has your best intentions at heart.
Not everyone is worthy of your love and attention. Open your eyes and save your heart for the ones who deserve to be in it.
5. LEO
Stop being lazy.
For most of the time you are a go-getter, you pursue your goals and find the best way to achieve them.
But sometimes you are too lazy to lift your butt off of the couch.
Sometimes that period gets prolonged to even a few weeks. Don’t allow your laziness stop you on your way to success.
Motivate yourself, get off your butt and reach greatness.
6. VIRGO
Stop beating yourself up because not everything went as you planned.
You like to have every single step you take planned, you like to know what to expect and when something unexpected happens or things don’t work out the way you wanted them to, you beat yourself up.
Go easy on yourself and remember that not everything in life needs a plan.
Sometimes, the best things in life are those things that come after something goes wrong.
7. LIBRA
Stop forgetting that you need to take care of yourself too.
Your desire for balance and harmony can take you on a path where you are constantly the peacemaker among the people close to you.
You become more absorbed in their problems that you forget about yourself.
You matter too, stop forgetting that. If you don’t recharge and make time to pamper yourself a little bit, you won’t help anybody.
Also, remember that you don’t carry the weight of the world on your shoulders and that people need to solve their own problems.
8. SCORPIO
Stop overreacting.
You are extremely passionate and though that’s an admirable trait, it can also be a negative one.
You tend to overreact and take things to heart when you shouldn’t.
Try listening more and talking less. See that every story has two sides and that you don’t have to be right all the time.
9. SAGITTARIUS
Stop being too laid-back.
Although, “I’ll get to it when I get to it,” are good words to live by, you sometimes take them too literally.
Even though you don’t mind procrastinating and getting everywhere at the last minute, the people who surround you are affected by your behavior.
Think about them too and do things that need to be done in time.
10. CAPRICORN
Stop thinking and start doing.
You are a very smart creature. You like to make strategies on how to achieve your goals.
The bad side of this is that sometimes you never do anything about it and you get stuck in the planning process.
So, plan less and go for it. It’s OK to assess the risks and make a strategy but don’t allow it to last too long; start the activation process—your work and your love life will appreciate it.
11. AQUARIUS
Stop thinking that everyone has a heart as kind as yours.
You give yourself entirely to the people you love, you don’t compare yourself with anybody and you are not jealous of anyone.
Sadly, not everyone shares your viewpoints and there are people who will take your goodness as weakness.
They will exploit you in any way possible and it’s time you tell them to stop, even at the cost of your friendship or a relationship.
12. PISCES
Stop shrinking yourself so others would feel bigger.
You are exceptional but so very shy and you keep your artistic side hidden, as well as your every other talent.
You are both afraid of criticism and you don’t want others to feel less.
And it’s time you stop thinking like that. Welcome criticism as the push you need to do better and reach higher.
Don’t make yourself small or hide your virtues because of other people; you have to learn to put yourself first for a change.
