Alright, let me tell you how my Wednesday actually went after reading up on some “lucky tips” for us Aries folks tomorrow. Yeah, it was one of those late-night scrolls – you know how it is. Spotted this thing suggesting 3 things to focus on for Aries to get lucky tomorrow. Honestly, sounded a bit out there, but hey, I like trying things myself. Figured, why not? Let’s see.
So, This Was My Process
First off, last night, I dug around. There wasn’t much real detail – mostly just those three focus points thrown out there: Trust Your Gut Feeling, Wear Lucky Colors (Red or White), and Listen More Than Speak. Okay, kinda vague. But I’m all for testing theories. Decided I’d give it a proper shot today to see if anything actually changed.
So, this morning, wake up, usual coffee struggle. First thing I did: grab my little notebook, the one I use for random project ideas. Wrote down those three points. Felt kinda funny scribbling “Wear red or white” and “Shut up sometimes” in my serious work book, but hey, commitment.
Picked a white t-shirt – didn’t feel like looking like a fire alarm today. Threw on a red flannel shirt over it halfway through the morning because, well, cold office. Guess that counts as both colors?
Putting Them Into Action
1. Trust My Gut: Had this smaller task at work, kinda repetitive. Usually, I just plow through it mechanically. Today, my head felt itchy about a different way to approach step two. Normally? I’d ignore it. But the tip said ‘trust gut’, so screw it. Tried it. Did it feel faster? Honestly… maybe? Or maybe I was just paying more attention. Hard to say, but it didn’t blow up in my face, which is a win.
2. Lucky Colors: Flannel and white tee combo engaged. Did I feel magically luckier? Not really. But I did get two compliments on the flannel – one from the barista, one from my usually grumpy colleague. Got me a slightly nicer coffee doodle and an actual smile from said colleague. Tiny wins? I’ll take ’em as vibes. Maybe that’s the ‘luck’? Good vibes?
3. Listen More: Oh man, THIS one was tough. Aries, we love to talk, right? Afternoon team catch-up. I’m usually bursting with ideas. Today, I forced myself. Seriously. Clamped my jaw shut more times than I can count. Made notes instead of interrupting. Actually heard what Greg was saying about the budget issue properly for once – normally I tune out halfway. Surprise! He actually had a decent point I usually miss. Managed to build on it later instead of just bulldozing my own plan. Didn’t magically get a promotion, but it felt… smoother? Less argumentative anyway.
What Actually Happened?
Well, world didn’t end. My numbers didn’t magically triple. But here’s the thing:
- That “gut feeling” tweak? Made the boring task less soul-destroying. Win.
- Compliments because of a silly shirt? Put me in a slightly better mood. Win.
- Not steamrolling the meeting? Reduced the usual team tension a notch. Big win for everyone’s sanity, honestly.
So, lucky? Maybe not pots-of-gold lucky. But the day flowed way better than my usual chaotic Aries steamroller approach. Felt calmer, less frazzled. People seemed to react a bit easier too. Was it because I wore red and shut up? Who knows! Maybe just paying focused attention to these things altered how I acted. Whatever it was, it worked better than just hoping. Felt more intentional. Less passive.
Would I do it again tomorrow? Maybe swap the shirt color, see if that changes the vibe. Definitely need more practice with the listening thing… that felt unnatural. But yeah, the experiment was worth it. Even if just to try something different. Didn’t hurt, maybe helped. That’s the takeaway I guess.
