Summarize the following:
Depending on the tire size, you may need to remove several gallons of liquid ballast. Choose a place outdoors, perhaps in dirt or a field, where you can let the liquid out of the tire. Only let liquid ballast run into the ground if you use water as ballast. For calcium chlorinate, antifreeze, or polyurethane foam, remove the valve core over a large bucket or basin. While removing liquid from the tire, you'll want the valve core facing downward so it runs directly into the ground. Turn the tire until the valve core is pointing towards the ground before taking off the valve core. If the tire is attached to the tractor, use a car jack to lift away the weight pressure and rotate the tire as needed. Hold the valve core, the metal cylindrical object attached to the tire's inner side, between your fingers and twist it in a counterclockwise motion. Continue twisting the valve core until you remove it completely and expose the air/liquid adaptor.  Set the valve core aside somewhere safe so you can reattach it afterward. Once you've removed the valve core, the tire should start leaking liquid. To completely reset the tire's pressure, wait until the tire empties itself of all the liquid it contained into the ground or basin. From there, you can either screw the valve cap back on or, if you're currently using the tire, refill it to the desired pressure. Repeat this process for each of the tractor's 4 tires and, if you removed them to lower the ballast pressure, reattach them.

summary: Place a basin under the valve stem before removing liquid from the tire. Rotate the tire until the valve core is facing down. Remove the valve core. Allow all of the liquid to run out of the tire.

At the end of the day try to think of three things that went well for you. Re-play those three things in your mind and write them down. In this way, you’ll trick your mind into focusing on the positive. Expressing gratitude and kindness toward others will not only cheer you up, but other people too. Choose some important people in your life and send them a little reminder of what you like or appreciate about them. When you’re feeling down, you’ll probably notice negative thought patterns start to emerge. Put a stop to these thoughts by confronting them or challenging them with a positive counter-thought. For example, if you’re feeling down about not getting to go outside lately because of bad weather and work, you can say “This won't last forever. I know I can find things indoors to cheer me up in the meantime." Take time to vent what you’re frustrated or down about. While it’s important not to overthink or overly focus on the negatives, it’s also important not to ignore them. Instead of denying your feelings or keeping them bottled up inside, express yourself to a trusted friend. If you don’t feel like talking, consider writing in a journal, painting, or drawing. If you're holding on to past hurts or resentments, let them go. They're only continuing to bring you pain and suffering if you still focus on them or think about them. Also let go of any mistakes you've made in the past or worries you have for the future. You cannot control those things.

summary: Reflect on what went well. Brighten someone’s day. Change your negative thoughts. Express yourself. Let go.

Treats (in the form of pieces of kibble) should only be given to the puppy when they’ve performed the correct behaviour.  And the reward should be given immediately after the good behaviour.  If you cannot get to your puppy quick enough after the good behaviour, it’s better to forego the treat altogether. While training a puppy it’s helpful to keep a belted pack around your waist so you have easy (and quick) access to treats when needed. Before attaching a leash to your puppy, teach your puppy to stay seated and pay attention.  Reward your puppy for staying seated.  Then, run away and get get your puppy to chase you.  Stop after 5-7 steps and wait for your puppy to sit down before handing out the reward. The point of this training process is to teach your puppy to sit and follow properly, without the added pressure of a leash.  Your puppy needs to think this process is fun. Attach a lightweight leash to your puppy’s collar.  Practice the sit and follow routine, but do not hold the leash.  Allow the puppy to drag the leash around.  Reward your puppy for performing the sit and follow routine properly. Make sure there aren’t any obstacles where the leash can get caught. When standing and walking normally, the leash should be held with enough slack that the puppy’s collar isn’t being pulled tightly around its neck.  If your puppy moves too far from you, it may pull.  But your puppy will soon learn that staying closer to you is more comfortable. The more pressure and discomfort a puppy is feeling, the more they’ll fight back. When holding the leash while on a walk, your hands should be down by your sides.  Your right hand should be against your right thigh (with the loop of the leash in your thumb), and your left arm should be against your left thigh (holding a portion of the leash in your fist). Never wrap the leash around your hand or wrist on either side of your body, this can cause serious injury. When the puppy is stopped beside you, you may need to fold excess parts of the leash into your hand.  But when the puppy (and you) start to move, you may need to allow a couple of the folds to come out of your hand. Avoid holding the leash in one spot and raising and lowering your hands to lengthen and shorten the leash.  This will cause you to inadvertently hold the least too tightly.
summary: Reward good behaviour. Practice sitting and following first. Let the puppy drag a leash. Allow slack in the leash. Hold the leash below your waist. Shorten and lengthen the leash as needed.
