Floating a Big Boat in Shallow Water
Steady · a steady yearReading 643: the year
Conditions aren't quite ready for what you want to do this year. If you launch too early you'll hit bottom, so prepare while the water rises. The more you prepare, the farther you'll go later.

Reading 643: work
Like a big ship touching bottom in shallow water, you are not quite ready to launch big plans yet this year. Instead of rushing, use this time to build skill and experience. When the water rises, the ship floats on its own.
Money
Funds may feel short compared to your big goals. Extending your saving period is safer than borrowing beyond your means. Split your target amount into stages and fill them one by one, and the water slowly deepens.
People and relationships
Quietly preparing beats announcing your plans widely this year. Instead, stay near people you can learn a lot from and pick up their know-how. Good people come first to those who are ready.
A small habit for this year
Split this year's goal into three stages, and focus on filling only this month's step.
