Product Information

Some people improve their habits by bundling a fun activity after a harder one—a reward for an activity you want to get done but don’t find pleasurable. Behavioral scientists have long understood that enjoyable activities are a strong motivator to perform unpleasant ones—this is now sometimes referred to as temptation bundling. Temptation bundling is a great way to use having fun as a way to get the hard stuff done. 3. Variety is the spice of life. Many competing dogs are 10 years old and over, so there's no upper age as long as the dog is healthy. The only requirement is that they perfect the turning technique at the box, known as the "swimmer's turn", to minimise potential knee and hip joint impact. What is flyball training? Playfulness, connection and flow each have been shown to improve people’s moods and mental health when experienced on their own. But when people experience these three states at once — in other words, when they have true fun — the effects that they report are almost magical. When people are having actual fun, they report feeling focused and present, free from anxiety and self-criticism. They laugh and feel connected, both to other people and to their authentic selves. Someone recently told me about how much fun he had just sitting on a park bench with his nephew, laughing as they tried to catch falling leaves. It felt like the perfect metaphor for getting through the pandemic. Despite all of the challenges that we currently face, there are still opportunities for fun floating around us. We just need to remind ourselves to reach out and grab them.

For those concerned that variety will eat into productivity, I’m here to assure you that a “productive life” and a “fun life” are not in opposition. Shifting time away from work need not dampen professional performance. In fact, taking time to engage in active leisure (in turn restoring our batteries) makes us more productive, with better results. Take time to write down what used to light you up. For some people, it’s going to be hobbies. A lot of it is, ‘Hey, I haven’t seen these friends.’ You can ask people for recommendations. You want to think about your personality. If you’re outgoing, you want more social stuff. If you’re introverted, more solitary activities. But you’ll also see that some things aren’t going to be realistic anymore. The great thing about flyball is that it's suitable for all breeds and sizes — from chihuahuas to wolfhounds. But, to participate, they must have completed some basic training. That way, they'll know how to play the game and make the most of the exercise.

Chris and Scott knew they couldn’t market a successful product without help, so they got more people on their team to distribute the load. One was a lawyer by the name of Ed Werner, and the other was Chris’s brother, John. This team of four managed to successfully launch the game in 1981. 7. They Initially Sold Over 1,000 Copies Positive psychology holds a certain appeal. It’s about well-being and happiness, not thinking negatively. What’s not to like? The suggestions of what to do have been said so often that they’re easy to rattle off. Show gratitude. Find your passion. Create social networks. They might sound simple, but the stuff can work. You could, of course, join a local flyball club. But it’s a good idea to start with some basic home training.

A lot of people have initial resistance. ‘Well, you know, my week is always going to be different.’ Generally, at least 60 to 80 percent of it is the same. So where are the opportunities to take things away? Because the last thing you want is to make ‘having fun’ another thing on your to-do list. You might not have a flyball box at home, although they're relatively inexpensive online, or you might be able to get one from your local pet shop. Thanks to his investment in the company, Michael went on to earn enough money to start his own marketing company in Toronto. 4. The Prototype Was Pieced Together at Home The course for this immensely fun sport needs to be 15.5m long from the box to the finish line, with the first jump at 1.8m and the following three at 3m intervals. Then it's a further 5.5m from the last hurdle to the front of the spring-loaded box. We are good at comparing. Feeling happy can have less to do with our actual experience and more to do with how we think it compares to someone else’s. Much of how we perceive happiness is predicated on shared experience. In this way, our happiness is almost like a mass hallucination. We compare ourselves against others in whatever consensus reality we are living in at that moment.

For instance, you can double your fun by combining two already fun activities (say, enjoying a comedy show and connecting with a friend) or combine a mundane activity (like cleaning your house) with a more enjoyable one (like catching up on your favorite podcast). The answer, he found out, lay in the pursuit of fun, not happiness. Seeking fun is far more actionable. It’s also introspective and ruminating. Fun doesn’t require people to feel anything or see three daily examples of gratitude if they don’t want to. With fun, people have autonomy. If they don’t like a situation or a group of people? They can change it.
