Keep after those goals!
Welcome back to our little newsletter. As we roll into June of 2021, we thought it might be a good idea to checkup on those horse goals and resolutions from the new year! Sometimes life can get busy, ok most of the time! You might have found yourself all ready with determination January 1st and then as the months have gone by, some of that vigor may have dwindled...you're not alone!
But what shall we do as we hit the half way mark to our 2021? As the pile of paperwork, laundry and other to-do list items continue to grow it can be easy to get overwhelmed or feel like you're missing the mark on keeping up with your plans.
IT IS OK. One of my favorite sayings is that "it's never too late to do the right thing." Don't be afraid to set aside some time to regroup and get back after it. It takes little steps everyday starting with an agreement to ride more, groom, saddle, lunge...do something with your horse, every day. Maybe it's signing up for an event or opportunity to get out and ride with friends. Clinics are a great way to gain experience for you and your horse in a positive group setting. It's all about growing and finding new tools to take home with you. They're also a great way to meet new horsey friends to bring along with you on your journey!
We are blessed to meet dozens of riders each year from a variety of skill levels and backgrounds. What they all share is the choice made to get out there and ride! Some focus on competition goals, some aspire to build their equine partnerships, and some just love enjoying time with horses and friends. If they can do it, so can you! Start small, break those goals into bite size pieces. And remember, they're your goals. They don't have to match anyone else's expectations but your own.
Enjoy the process and remember to ride your ride!
