A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush definition

The things we already have are more valuable than the things we only hope to get.

Here is my horoscope for the week...if only I can heed it:

They say that a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush, but that’s never been an easy concept for you to swallow. You like to explore your options. Endlessly. The trouble is, Gemini, you keep discovering the same thing: nobody and nothing is perfect. Rather than continuing to “upgrade,” take a moment to appreciate what and whom you are currently dealing with. If you keep yourself at a cool distance, observing, judging, and waiting for things to click into place, that “aha!” moment will never arrive. Rather, Gemini, you need to make an added effort to engage with people and to seek out motivating challenges in the work that you’re doing. Set aside questions like, “Is he The One?” or “Is this the right job for me?” You DID manifest these circumstances, so perhaps they’re in your life to teach you something. How can you maximize their potential? Everyone has at least one thing to offer. Start mining for magic instead of looking for flaws. A funny thing may happen when you do: people can literally transform before your eyes. Don’t be surprised if you’re suddenly attracted to a person you felt “meh” about last week or inspired about a project that had lost its luster. It’s never a waste of time to form stronger connections with people. Someone from your inner circle may have news about a job opportunity for you. Scroll through your contact database. If a name jumps out at you, shoot a “what’s up?” email over and find out if there are some win-wins brewing. Divine timing is everything, and with the Scorpio sun heating up your work sector for one more week, following up with someone you met with in the past could bring a long-awaited opportunity to collaborate.
