This Is What I Have Learned

Two Weeks Ago I Got A Puppy. He Has Taught Me About Life, Leadership, and the Power of Discipline.

Hi Team…

Well, two weeks ago I got a dog. His name is Rocco.

He is an English Bulldog. He was a gift to my wife for her birthday.

He is very sweet, but, some nights he does not like to sleep.

He spends the night looking for attention.

As the Coach, it has been my job to train him.

My wife and I have opposite personalities on this topic. She is a compassionate, empathetic care taker. Fully responsive to his needs and desires.

I am much more stern. Demand obedience. Put into place high levels of structure and discipline. And, I never cave into his behavior of being needy.

Two different styles.

Two different outcomes.

Realization: The dog knows exactly what he is doing and what he can get from each party.

Why do I share?

Well, very similar behavior traits can be found amongst people.

No Discipline = Anarchy and Rebellion.
