Real Deal

I have several months of experience being a bulldog and mentoring my momma (plus I keep her feet warm), so I'm an expert! Obviously!
Come back here monthly to hear my latest tips and tricks, and in no time at all, you will find yourself feeling like a new pup!

Question: Bram, what is your New Year's Resolution?
Answer: Happy New Year from your favorite bulldog, Bram!
I have noticed that humans overcomplicate resolutions. They magic up plans with a lot of steps (I can only count to three) or they talk about big goals without setting achievable short term goals. Why make it so hard!?
Bulldogs know the secret though and I want to share it with you.
Pick one thing.
Do it every day.
Celebrate small wins.
That's it! Now you're thinking like a bulldog!
Consistency is the only resolution that matters. Every walk is a win. Every belly rub is a goal met. Every snack is a victory.
Did I say snack? This thinking has me hungry!
Comment and share, but come back next month for more wisdom on how to live a happy bully life!
