Doing The Opposite Of What You Do To See A Change In The Dog

Watch Mark is like a Marvel movie, you have to wait until the end. I felt me and my partner were being irritated at eachother a couple weeks back. But then I thought about what I could change. I realized I was coming in the house tired and it was making me irritable. I started making sure to 'leave it at the door' so to speak and coming home with the attitude I wanted. Once I made the shift in perspective the change followed. It's not always that simple, but even if you don't always solve an issue you can usally understand it and get a better perspective when we focus on what we can change and influence. Life can be incredibly overwhelming but we controll what we control. I don't believe in free will, but I do believe that we are always presented with options.

we are as free as we see ourselves to be and allow ourselves to be. sometimes creative problems require creative solutions. I dont have a car so one solution i came up with was just saving up cab, shuttle, and bus fare and got myself an e-scooter for days that i cant or wont do those things. at first it was a hassle carrying groceries around on a scooter but now its not so bad and kind of enjoyable. in the states i would of just gotten a car and complain about the cost of gas. my dog is the same way. because i dont have a lot of land to work with i get creative with where we go on our walks and for how long and what we do on them. today my dog ran around on the beach on his flex leash for an hour then came home and wanted to play. i also get creative with feeding time by having him use feeder puzzles and feeding games we invented. one includes filling up a plastic bottle with food and he tosses it around outside. another involves an intricate feeding bowl and sometimes i hide food in a paper bag for him to shred as he wont eat the paper. a lot of times i walk him first to simulate us going on a hunt for food.

fasting is the hardest thing ive done so far and only lasted a day and a half. its definitely something that you need to work up to heck it took me a while to get used to eating once a day. after a fast you need to gradually reintroduce food to your body and need to reintroduce certain foods that are easy to digest. you cant go from fasting for days on end then go back to eating chicken buckets at KFC as your go to ¨reward¨ fast food is not a reward or a treat to the body. its like saying ¨let me reward myself after a day of work by drinking anti freeze¨
