Romeo’s Tip of the Week: Don’t Give Up on Goals So Easily

Goals are not usually met overnight. And, don't stress over the small stuff. Posts by Romeo, the little black dog.

Hello everyone!

How has your first week of the year 2013 been? Mine has been quiet and peaceful. My Gram has still been sick, but I think she is starting to get better. YEAH!!!

Last week, when I posted my blog I forgot to mention something quite important to me and all my friends: NOISE.

Yes, this is an important topic for pets. Our human friends and family like to include us in all their celebrations. And while that is wonderful, it can be very scary for us if their celebrations include a lot of loud noises. On New Year’s Eve, a lot of people were probably blowing loud horns and shooting off fireworks (and much of the same is done on the 4th of July), but — news flash! — this can be terrifying for us. Please keep this in mind before including us in loud celebrations!

Now that the new year is in full swing, how many of you set goals for yourself and/or your business? Are you already finding it a struggle to follow through with your plans? Don’t give up too quickly! Maybe you just need to make some minor adjustments to achieve your goals. I for one have decided to be a little more patient with my family when they are doing so many nice things for me.
