Your question What have I outgrown and not admitted?

The spread

  1. The rim Eye Being seen, or finally seeing. Clarity with a witness. What to avoid: Watching instead of participating.
  2. The middle Tree Slow growth, deep roots, and a decision with a long horizon. What to avoid: Waiting for a tree to behave like a flower.
  3. The bottom Crown Recognition, authority, and the attention that comes with both. What to avoid: A title held without the work.

Under the sky over Washington, D.C., the first shape is a curve, and curves mean a change of direction rather than an arrival.

The heart of the cup is Tree, describing a habit that costs you about an hour a day and is entirely fixable.

The last shape is faint, which means the answer is already there and simply not yet legible.

What to do

Let the answer be obvious and unimpressive.

Timing

The first attempt should be small enough to repeat.

Take with you

The uncomfortable hour is doing useful work.
