I like philosophy. But I write about dogs, mostly.

@RobertGreene What might Leonardo da Vinci (or another polymath of your choosing) be doing in today's society if he were in his 20s now? Let's just assume he is living in the United States

7) E-COLLAR - She's already been trained on an e-collar, but I'm reconditioning the page/vibrate to mean come to heel. This dog had tons of pent up energy that has to be released and she needs freedom to explore. This means off leash fetch, hikes, and walks where permitted.

What your future self is screaming at you:
Quit that job
Start that business
Exercise everyday
Stop eating shit food
Work towards big goals
Call your family more
Go on more dates with your spouse

Your dog is doing the best that they know how. Don't be mad at them because you haven't trained enough with them.

Most mornings I take my 1-year-old dog for an off-leash walk at sunrise. Today I realized this truth applies to both humans and our dogs:

𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗶𝗽𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗲𝗾𝘂𝗮𝗹𝘀 𝗳𝗿𝗲𝗲𝗱𝗼𝗺.

She's free because she's disciplined:
• Comes immediately when called
• Heels until released
• Checks in when off-leash
• Waits on command
• Points instead of chasing small animals

With training comes freedom. Thank you @jockowillink for this universal lesson.

If family, fitness, and freedom define true wealth, then a typical salaried job is its opposite.

You trade time with loved ones for long days away, sacrifice health by sitting all day in artificial lighting, and work to build someone else’s wealth—not your own.

Progress comes from:
1) Carving out time
2) Deep focus
3) Unstoppable momentum

Negativity is a distraction, stealing your energy and focus.

Guard your mind—it takes willpower to overcome whatever negativity you allow in.

Poor mindset: "I’ll save money by figuring it out myself."
Wealth mindset: "I’ll invest in coaching to save time and learn faster."

Time is your most valuable currency—spend it wisely.

When training your puppy, keep this top of mind: What is my dog learning right now?

Dog parents often unwittingly reinforce unwanted behaviors. It may be affection at the wrong times (jumping, barking) or allowing loose positions (forging heel, sitting up in a downstay).

Your puppy is constantly being rewarded—Reward it for the desired behavior.
