Beating yourself up about being stuck in the "I kind of want to change, but I can't get myself to change, so I must not want the change bad enough" is one of the most counterproductive ways to talk to yourself.

Change isn't all about action. It starts with you (and your dog) just living your life (or lives), followed by as much time as necessary to consider if there is something you want to change and how. Change is also about falling back into old patterns and trying again.
When you come to that realization, you can stop beating yourself up for not changing, or for falling off the change-wagon. How can you "not be changing" after all, when you are living the very definition of change? How can you have fallen off the change-wagon, if falling off is part of change?

In this episode, I relate the phases of change to life with our dogs and life in general.
Hopefully, it's another way for you to look at things that allows you to start training your dog the way you want, or to make that change in your self-care routine, to quit that job and become a dog trainer. You name it.
