Glossary

dawn: the time of day when the sun rises in store: about to happen nostalgia: when you look back at the past with affection turn out: to happen in a particular way

Mostly a): No hurry

You’re very attached to your daily life. For you it’s reassuring to have a predictable routine, not having to take too many decisions and leaving things as they are. You don’t complain about your life because you’re happy with it and look back to the past with nostalgia*. A little piece of advice: when you can, try to change some small details and see if it was worth it. Sometimes swapping certainty for uncertainty can turn out* to be a marvellous discovery and can teach you something about yourself that you didn’t know.

Mostly b): Only if necessary

Live life to the full in the present, the “here and now”, is the most important thing for you. You’re concentrated on the moment, which makes you a very attentive and curious person. You welcome change with spontaneity, if and when it arrives, and you’re open to new things, but only if you don’t have a choice. But remember: if you want to reach a goal, you have to get busy thinking also about the future, to be able to assess better the opportunities that you will meet along your path. Start preparing yourself also for the things that haven’t happened yet!

Mostly c): Born ready

What guides you and inspires you in life is enthusiasm and the curiosity to know what’s in store* for you. For this reason the idea of change doesn’t scare you, on the contrary, in your opinion doing something different or finding yourself in a new situation is an opportunity for growth. You find the fact that you’re able to adapt to change exciting, and you’re very confident about the future. It’s an excellent attitude to have! But sometimes stop and look at what you have now, look around you and don’t be in too much of a hurry.
