Here's to waking up to a dog licking your face instead of an alarm clock. 

Being lazy is all too easy these days. It's not the middle ages where we have to fight for food and water. It's not the agricultural era either, where it was sunrise to sunset work outside in fields, harvesting, planting, growing fruits and vegetables, tending to animals and livestock all just to exist! Phew, aren't we glad that these days our plights are existential, economical, and technological? Just kidding, we're not saying one or the other is better, but it sure does feel nice to Door Dash groceries that we didn't even have to grow. Indolence is the name of the game in modern times. We barely have to move at all, we just need to sit in one place and everything comes to us, even our dogs. 

When you're feeling low, like you can't get out of bed, and like binge watching a Netflix series sounds like the best thing you can imagine, then it's time to scroll dog memes for inspiration. No one loves their job. Even people who say they do can't love it day in and day out. They may love it in a way, but it's still work. 

Why do dog memes feel so inspiring? Their sweetness, cuteness, and innocence are enough to warm our hearts. If they can strive forward everyday and get through life, then so can we! They may seem simple on the outside, but on the inside they're wholesome creatures who really have our backs. They're not called "man's best friend" for nothing. They perk us up and basically force us out of bed, and we don't even resent them! If you're looking for a bit of motivation, owning a dog will certainly do it. They hold you accountable, they're there for you, and they expect an equal exchange of love and care.

  • There’s something deeply motivating about a dog who fails forward. A pup slipping on hardwood floors but continuing the mission. A dog staring out a window like it has important thoughts, even though it absolutely doesn’t. They remind us that perfection is not the goal—participation is. If a dog can get up, shake it off, and greet the day with unearned optimism, maybe we can sit up and check our phones at the very least.
