Bark from the park, my bottle is half full!

Optimists have better luck!


Optimists usually win, according to researchers recently. People who look on the bright side can hypnotise themselves to overcome challenges. Simply anticipating something good can gear up hidden circuits in the brain to drive you towards it. Good thoughts bring good outcomes. Are you a bowl half empty kind of dog or a bowl half full? Is your bowl neither as there’s never anything left in it? Do you stare at your human, whilst sitting by the snack jar just willing them to open it? Do you stare at your human praying they won’t put the last fork full of food in their mouths and give it to you instead? Well if you don’t succeed, it’s just down to the lack of positive thinking. Send out those vibes and whatever you wish for will be yours. World peace, a pigs ear treat, three walks a day or just simply intergalactic harmony, it’s only a thought away. Just off to hypnotise myself into to winning the lottery! What are you off to hypnotise yourself into to?????

  3. This reminds me of a Philosophy Final I had in college. The professor came out with a stool, placed it in the middle of his teaching table and said "Your Final Exam consists of one issue: Prove to me this stool exists".

    Now, this was my last final of my freshman year... I just wanted to be in my packed up vehicle heading home! So I promptly wrote on a piece of paper "What stool?" and turned it in.

    I received a B+ :D

    It's all on how you look at things...for me I don't want to think about how much is in the bowl... just give me what is in the bowl no matter how much!!!I ignore the obstacles and move right on!!

    Great post! :)

  6. I am trying to live in the moment. My dogs do that. My 18 year old nephew, who knows everything (don't they all at that age?) says that things just work out. He doesn't get that sometimes it takes work to make things work out, but for the most part, things do work out. Is that being positive? :-)

    1. Yes that is positive and very wise words too! I love the young ones everything is easy at that age! Your recent post and link to old one was very moving. Our thoughts were with you and to remember is good!

    1. Hi William The Scot , thinking and wanting food is an all day occurrence and with positive thought we should be able to wing some our way but a little slobber and drool does help. Nicely put my friend!

  11. I normally get what I want when I send out the vibes though sometimes, it doesn't hurt to send out some well-timed sighs as well! I've got Mommy very well trained. Heh heh.

    1. Hey guys , that's the result of the positive vibrations scrambling you humans thoughts and re-arranging them to fit your own. You didn't know I have a Doctorate in Quantum Physics did you?

    1. Hi my furry friends from down under , mummy has been zapped with good vibes so you now have to set your vibes to factor 300 and aim them on dad endlessly till he succumbs and he will. It's your will against his and trust me when it comes to the good things in life who is gonna win? Lottery win , just a token gesture to our humans as we doglets have already won!

  15. Those positive vibes have hypnotized my real mom to feeding Peanuts and Chooey table scraps. LOL. She can't help but look into their cute little faces and finally give in to the temptation of feeding her darling little doggies a piece of her meal.

    I'm a bit optimistic nowadays. ^^

  18. I'm such a happy dog...but also a hungry dog and my bowl is always empty! When I want it filled up, I just carry it around in my mouth, until somebody fills it back up! I'm pretty hard to ignore :D
