  Organizing Tip

Give Your Chores a Chance



We probably all have a mental list of the 'little' jobs around the house that we want to accomplish. I'm not talking about major undertakings, like painting a room, but instead to the simple cleaning and organizing tasks that tend to get put off. It may be cleaning out a junk drawer or organizing one of the messy shelves in the pantry.

To ensure these jobs get done, while at the same time making it a bit more fun, grab a small pad of paper and a pen. On individual pieces of paper, write down these little jobs that you want to accomplish. One paper may say 'Sweep garage.' Another may say, 'Wash make-up brushes.' Write down any and all of the tasks you want to get done.

When finished, toss all of the notes into a bowl or container. Once a day, reach in and grab one of the slips of paper. Whatever is written...THAT is the job you do that day. Put the slips you've completed into an envelope until the container is empty...which means you got a TON DONE! Then, you can toss them all back into the container, shake 'em up, and begin again.

It makes it a little more fun to throw the element of chance into your organizing routine. Plus having these TO DOs written down ensures that everything will get done. If any other tasks pop up, add them to the bowl whenever you see fit. Somehow pulling the jobs out at-random makes the work seem more fun and allows you to see your progress as the bowl starts to go from full to empty.

No matter what your dog's problem behavior is, be it jumping, peeing inappropriately, aggression, pulling on the leash...or whatever, there is ONE SOLUTION that can help STOP this problem now.

The sad fact is, most dog trainers miss this solution entirely. They give you cookie cutting training programs. They use outdated and `mean' dominance techniques. Or worse yet, they have no qualifications and are complete phonies. So what's the answer to stopping your dog's behavior problems? In 5 simple words...

Discovering your dog's hidden intelligence.

Let me explain. More intelligent dogs are better behaved. A more intelligent dog takes commands easier and understands what you need from them. The good news is, no matter how clever you think your dog is, you can unlock their hidden intelligence quickly and easily.

Don't waste a second longer coping with problem behaviors you don't need to be dealing with. Visit this link to learn more about Brain Training for Dogs:
