"It is a very funny thing about life -
if you refuse to accept anything but the best you very often get it."
Novelist and Playwright, W. Somerset Maugham

Your action for today is
to bring the best of yourself
to your interactions with others.

Whiskey's Bonus Tips:

  1. Wag your tail at everyone you meet, they may become a new friend. 
    Be Friendly (Plus, they may have treats!)
  2. Use your best "puppy dog eyes" to get what you want, barking rarely works.
    Be Pleasantly Persuasive, never give up!
  3. If you hold your toy long enough while staring at your humans, they will eventually cave in and play with you. Be Persistent.
  4. Nuzzle your humans when you see they are sad. Be Empathetic.
  5. Be excited to see your humans every time they return home!
    Be Grateful for your friends and family. Be Appreciative for all you got!
  6. I love all my toys, I love to play with them, especially fetch with my humans. 
    Be Joyful!
  7. Never pass up an opportunity to explore! Be Curious to learn.
  8. Puppy training is tough stuff, but improving your skills creates better opportunities to interact better with my humans. Be Coachable.
  9. Being with my humans is the best, no matter what we do, I just love spending time with them. Be Present.
  10. I've known no greater love than that I experience every day with my humans, they take great care of me and I take care of their hearts. Be Loving!

    Design A Great Day!

Hello Thomas - it seems as if "Everything I Know Now Was Learned in Kindergarten" has another version.  Doggone it!  Well-done.  🐕

The task for today will be easy since I always try to do that, it's people's perceptions that decide how well I am doing with it, haha.
