TheThinking Habit That Changed My Life
Iremember one evening three years ago, when my life was very different. I wasoverweight. I was deeply in debt. I was a smoker. I felt hopeless and helpless.I couldn’t change anything.
Then Ilooked up at the sky and thought what a miracle life is. And I resolved to listthe good things in my life. I had a wonderful wife. I had five amazing children.I could see and appreciate the beauty of the world around me. The list went on,but you get the idea. Even when things seemed terrible for me, actually I wasOK.
Thatnight I resolved to be grateful for what I had, and for the people in my life. Istarted the habit of gratitude. Now many people consider it unimportant. I’mhere to tell you that it’s very important. It changes lives.
Now I appreciate my wife Eva more. I feel good abouthaving her in my life. And we have deepened our relationship. I also appreciatemy kids more. Instead of criticizing them, I tend to notice their loveliness,curiosity and humor. I’m kinder to others around me, at work and everywhereelse, because instead of seeing the faults in everyone, I see the good, and amgrateful for them. I need less, because instead of thinking about what I don’thave, I am grateful for what I do have. Each and every moment becomes cause forgratitude, and life becomes easier.
Withoutthe habit of gratitude, we tend to complain and see the bad in people and things.We can’t change that at once, but you can do something. For example, you can startwith a small action. Really feel the happiness that something or someone is inyour life, or take a moment to make a list of the things in your life that you’rethankful for.

Dog Training
Dog training is a must for alldogs. It is more than just telling your dog to stop doing what he’s doing; itis the process of teaching a dog to exhibit certain desired behaviors inspecific circumstances. Proper dog training is not a “quick fix”—it is anongoing process.
Dog training also involves teaching theowner. Going through dog training is somethingthat every dog owner should do. It is like going to school over again. It isall about communication, and you need to learn to communicate with your dog.
Training your dog to “sit”is probably the first thing you will train your dog to do. When you want yourdog to sit, hold a treat above his head and say “sit”. As the dog sits, say “sit”again and then immediately give him the treat. Your dog should drop into a “sit”position in order to reach the food.
Teachingyour dog to fetch promotes bonding. To do this, first throw a ball, and givethe command “fetch”. As he starts to run towards it, yell “fetch” again.Instead of a ball, you may use the object your dog loves most. Do not playfetch with heavy items or sticks, however, as this can damage the dog’s teethor injure the dog.
A well-trained dogshould remain where his owner commands, so “stay” is an important command indog training as well. Since it is more involved, that will be the subject ofanother article.
