Everything in your life at the present seems to be hinged on money and assets. You may be finding that you have a difficult time separating your possessions from who you are and your true self values. Dump old hair care products or tools that no longer work for you. Try to avoid getting sucked into equating yourself with dollar values. One of your enemies or rivals may seem to have the upper hand right now. Do they really? Or are you letting people push your buttons? Your rivals may simply be manipulating you so that you feel the need to be jumping through hoops unnecessarily. Don't be a patsy. Competitive foolishness will stop when you gain more appreciation for yourself. Self-criticism can be just as detrimental as overconfidence.
