Our daily routine included 5 to 15 minutes of training each morning, where Harry earned his kibble (in handfuls) as a reward for positive progress \u2013 sometimes very tiny incremental steps of progress for the trick or skill of the day. We both looked forward to our training sessions. They were fun!<\/p>\n<p><strong>What Harry was really learning was how to solve problems<\/strong>\u2026 without the fear of failure. Only positive progress is recognized and celebrated. Wrong is wonderful because you learn what doesn\u2019t work, and that helps you figure out what does work faster. A major side benefit is the positive relationship forged through this process. That really helps when it counts and you\u2019re under pressure to perform \u2013 like at an agility trial. In fact, I started using a simple trick, the \u201cHi Five\u201d, before the start of every agility run. It connected us, and allowed us to start our run with a small win.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-f000d3a elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"f000d3a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"902\" src=\"https:\/\/putneydesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/600w-Harry-Hi-Five_2944757.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-2434\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/putneydesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/600w-Harry-Hi-Five_2944757.jpg 600w, https:\/\/putneydesigns.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/600w-Harry-Hi-Five_2944757-200x300.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-822ddd7 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"822ddd7\" data-element_type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a4fc1c5\" data-id=\"a4fc1c5\" data-element_type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d6d6a1b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"d6d6a1b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Want to learn more about the learning from failure and the power of celebrating your small wins<\/strong> (or personal Q\u2019s)?\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Check out my blog article:\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><!-- \/wp:paragraph --><!-- wp:core-embed\/wordpress {\"url\":\"https:\/\/putneydesigns.com\/2020\/03\/20\/celebrate-your-personal-qs\/\",\"type\":\"wp-embed\",\"providerNameSlug\":\"putney-designs-llc\",\"className\":\"\"} --><\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed-wordpress wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-putney-designs-llc\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">https:\/\/putneydesigns.com\/2020\/03\/20\/celebrate-your-personal-qs\/<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><!-- \/wp:core-embed\/wordpress --><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p><strong>So how did I go from getting a D in physics to a Ph.D. in engineering?<\/strong> That D rocked my world.
