Not quite what you expected?
Have no fear, there are still horses for me to ride and stalls to be cleaned. That will be my ‘job’ when I get home. Or my fun? I can’t remember any more…it is fun and it is my job. So in a way I have finally reached my goal of living out this quote,
“The master in the art of living makes little distinction between his work and his play, his labor and his leisure, his mind and his body, his information and his recreation, his love and his religion. He hardly knows which is which. He simply pursues his vision of excellence at whatever he does, leaving others to decide whether he is working or playing. To him he is always doing both.” James Michener
P.S.- I got off easy this morning because Jesse did the morning feeding…he could see I was buried in computer work.
Then my afternoon got even more interesting as my internet crashed (welcome to country living) and now I’m sitting in the library finishing this post…now for groceries and go to the post office….then home to ride.
P.S.-If you know someone who has an interest in having a career in horses, or if you are looking yourself, keep an eye out for upcoming info on the next Equine Career Conference. I will also be sending out Equine Career related emails to a special list of people…but only if you sign up…see the form below (the one with the little picture that says 3 Reasons Horse Trainers Struggle).
Totally free and chock full of info!

No one taught you the skills you need to work through these things.
Riders often encounter self-doubt, fear, anxiety, frustration, and other challenging emotions at the barn. The emotions coursing through your body can add clarity, or can make your cues indistinguishable for your horse.
Learning these skills and begin communicating clearly with your horse.

I am currently a loper and barn manager for an individual in the cutting industry (NCHA). I have worked for a professional trainer in that industry as well. I have some limited experience in the field of Reining and I have trailer guide experience.
