Things Learned From The Family Dog – part 2



 Welcome to my weekly blog.  Each week, I will share some insight on topics such as goal setting, personal improvement, leadership and soft skills (dealing with people).  The information shared will be from my 10+ years in working with personal and leadership development.  From time to time I will have “guest” bloggers sharing their knowledge and insight.

Through December, the weekly blog will feature Things To Learn From The Family Dog.  I will cover 4 topics:

Week 1 – Lay
Week 2 – Sit
Week 3 – Speak
Week 4 - Love

Feel free to share your thoughts and how this info has helped you.

Enjoy!


Things Learned From The Family Dog – part2


Sit

Most dogs do it on command.

Most parents wish their children would do it more.

Truth is, we all must take time for a breather, to just stop and experience the present.

If your life is all about the hustle and bustle – go here – go there, let me caution you.  I once heard the quote, “Most people are so busy making a living that they don’t take time to make a life.”

Grab a book, plop down in a comfy chair and just sit.

Take 5 minutes a day to ponder life – let it be your quiet time.

If you are a religious person, take a break and just be still – let your one on one time be with your Creator.

No television, no cell phone, no X-Box – just sit.

Some folks prefer to do it in a room alone.  Others even prefer to turn off the lights.

Doing so allows your body time to catch up with itself.  It’s a time to rest.

As we ready ourselves and our homes for the upcoming holidays, take time to sit and experience the season, the decorations, those around you.

Have a great week.
