When riding, ask yourself what will my horse get out of it if I get what I want? Many times, human nature is to take and to not give anything back.

I don't believe in waiting for a horse to do the wrong thing and then punishing him after the fact. You can't just say no to a horse. You have to redirect a negative behavior with a positive one, something that works for both of you. It's as though you're saying - instead of doing that, we can do this together.

The horse is a great equalizer, he doesn't care how good looking you are, or how rich you are or how powerful you are-- he takes you for how you make him feel.

With a horse, if you make it easy for him to do the right thing, that's what he will logically do, but it's not necessarily true with the human. You will see humans that will beat their heads against the wall rather than open the door and walk through it.

Your Horse is a mirror to your soul.

You can't look forward and backward at the same time...........so I choose to look forward.

There are things that change all through your life the way you deal with people, the way you approach problems.
