Nobody has to lose for me to succeed and that is a unique job. Everybody wins, horse wins, people win, I win.

All your horse looks for is the thing that matters most, peace and contentment. Give it to him.

That absolute pure honesty of the horse, man that's just the greatest thing there is

My horse needs to be quiet enough not to draw my attention. You want your horse always aware of you. Be aware of your horse! Fidgeting? Direct that! Think of it as a gift. Do something with that energy; redirect it or it will be a negative. Don't let your horse check-out. A horse wants peace. Trade movement for peace.

A horse that has made a positive change in his behavior needs an opportunity to 'soak', to concentrate on & digest what he has learned. He needs his quiet time. Given this opportunity, his response will be better the next time you work with him.

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'm still on the move, I'm getting better because I'm still studying. I still want to be a better horseman.
