Study Notes
Dogs' Purpose
- Dogs' purpose is unconditional love for people.
- Dogs don't care about human actions; they still love unconditionally.
- Humans, unlike dogs, desire to learn and grow.
Human Purpose
- Humans, unlike dogs, are designed for learning and growth.
- Humans also need to learn and grow into loving one another unconditionally.
- Humans often complicate things.
- Simplification and focus on love are key.
- Key to simplifying is to focus on the one thing in work or life that one loves.
Finding Purpose
- Stress, busyness, deadlines, and disagreements are powerless against love.
- Focus on what one loves (not what one has to do).
- Finding one's purpose can lead to simplifying and better living.
- A person's purpose can be found through love and focusing on their "one thing."
Dog's Role in Finding Purpose
- Finding purpose can be eased by understanding that love (like a dog's love) simplifies complicated issues.
- Dogs' unconditional love provides a model for humans to follow.
Love and Acceptance
- Love, like a dog's love, transcends imperfections.
- Accepting one's own flaws, and accepting others' flaws, can help simplify the need to always "do the right thing."
- "Work in progress" reflects the ongoing nature of self-improvement.
