17 FEBRUARY


The Birthday of Self-discipline

“If there is a will there is a way”


The life lesson: is to let others in.

The way forward: is to understand that success may earn the admiration of others, but it may not win their love.

Luck maker: Move out of the corner. When you learn other ways of doing things, you can make luck from a vast field of opportunities rather than a narrow corner.


Those born on February 17 often figure out early in their life that the key to success is discipline. They are determined, earnest, ambitious people with a clear idea of where they want to go and what they need to do to get there. These qualities, combined with their remarkable willpower, can give them the appearance of invincibility. They are the athletes who train relentlessly, the entrepreneurs who sacrifice everything, the artists or scientists who devote their lives to their art or research. Underneath their tough exterior they are sensitive and can be easily hurt.

Born detectives who love a mystery, and with a sharp eye for details others might miss these people may be drawn to careers in the law or the police or programming. They may also be attracted to writing, journalism and education and can make great athletes, artists, singers, influencers and scientists. Indeed, they thrive in any career that requires self-discipline and may be drawn to management, charity work or self-employment. Health-wise, they can be guilty of pushing their bodies and minds too hard, so it is important they strive for balance in holistic wellbeing. For self-care, the more you trust yourself, the easier it will be for you to trust others. Be true to yourself with your words and actions every single day.

The downside of their tunnel-vision approach is that those born on this day ignore anything that hinders their quest; all too often this is personal relationships. They should make sure that their emotional happiness does not take a backseat to their professional ambition, especially after the age of 33 when they often become even more determined. The incredible stamina of these people means they are able to achieve a level of self-mastery to which others can only aspire. Once they figure out what they are best at, there is nothing that can stop them achieving remarkable things with their life and improving the world in the process. Their destiny is to inspire others with their fierce vitality and inspirational self-discipline.
