An Ode to Behavior Change

If you have a dog, cat, pet, child, partner, parent, sibling, friend, boss, or co-worker whose behavior you wish would change, you are a student of behavior. Behavior happens all around us and because of us. It never stops! 

I have never experienced a time when almost everyone across the globe is simultaneously practicing the same behavior. We're all joining together to stay apart. We're rapidly changing our own behavior for the greater good. 

Maybe all of this behavior change makes you tired and at the same time invigorates you? Even though some of our choices and preferences have been limited, we are still doing a lot of problem solving. I, myself, have started a windowsill garden. Perhaps we are on the verge of a creative renaissance. 

Pet lovers across the world are potentiating their quarantine by fostering and adopting. Thank you! Wondering what training solutions look like during a pandemic? 

Dog trainers across the world are busy changing their behavior too. Our minds are on fire with creativity, innovation, and solutions as our businesses go on life support. We're busy creating spaces in our homes suitable for online classrooms and private consultations. We're busy choosing platforms to host these online services. We're busy staying connected to our training communities and sharing helpful content. All while, just like you, taking care of our loved ones. 

Thank you, everyone, for changing your behavior for the greater good. Thank you, behavior, for bringing us all together — even while apart. We are all in this together for one singular goal: survival. Stay at home, stay safe, stay healthy, and stay connected online.
