Enough about Scorps! What about Taurus? Why are they so damned stubborn? And how do you get them to do anything??
Have you noticed that Taurus, Leo, Scorpio and Aquarius are all fixated in one way or another? They are all resistant to change, whether in the realm of ideas (Aquarius), their self-importance (Leo) or emotional resentments (Scorpio). All these signs have one thing in common — being fixed signs. They’re all stubborn, just in different ways. What makes Taurus take the cake, though, is that the Bull is an earth sign. Compared to the other elements (water, fire, air), earth is the most reserved and cautious. Earth signs (which also include Virgo and Capricorn) need to see the goods to feel secure — cold, hard cash; a plotted graph; a dust-free cabinet. When you mix fixed with earth, you get Taurus — the most stubborn sign of the zodiac. Taurus doesn’t want to let go (fixed) of any of his possessions (earth), and wants things to stay just as they are, thank you very much.
So, how do you get him to do anything? Venus provides the key. The planet of love, money and art is the ruler of Taurus. The Bull is a pleasure-hound, and will be roused out of his laziness if there’s a reward to be had. The reward, mind you, must be physical — praise won’t cut it. A deep massage, sexual favors, rich food, sweets, money — whatever it takes to bribe Taurus into taking a course of action. Learn the principles of behaviorism to develop an effective schedule of reinforcement. You know: rat gets pellet of food when it hits a lever.
I know it’s not easy. If Taurus has dug his heels regarding an issue important to you — such as his willingness to spend Christmas with your parents — then it may take some creativity and persistence to find the right carrot to get your donkey walking.

About Jeffrey Kishner
I made a “HUGE” discovery a few nights ago when I found out how to play Scrabble
and all these other Word Games on Facebook. How cool is that.???
The competition is “FIERCE” and my scores are really good but there are some smart
asses whom use these words which are unheard of unless you search the dictionary
first which I believe they do so when it’s time to score big against those particular players
I consult the dictionary myself. After all “FAIR is FAIR”.
I used to play with my sister Lisa years ago but she lost interest because I was always
beating her and she can’t stand competition of any kind especially when her husband
Jason is always on his phone playing Texas Holdem Poker. She was winging about it
and I said to her. You are better off with that instead of a hell of a lot of things he could
be doing which would be far worse so learn to grin and bear it. She said you’re right and
she stopped winging now which is just as well because he is addicted.
I used to think how can he be on the phone playing that stupid game all the time but now
I understand because I derive sooo much pleasure from my word games and I “LOVE” it.
Alexander told me off the other night and said these dishes had better not be in the sink
tomorrow by the time I return from work or else. So I make sure I do my chores first and
then enjoy my “GAMES”.!!!
