Training Horses for Others vs Training Your Own‪.‬ Train Your Own Horse with Stacy Westfall

    • Wilderness

Episode 69: Question: “I was wondering how you keep your motivation for riding your own horses when you are training other people's horses. I feel like I have to have a lot of motivation for everyone else's horses to keep them going and keep them working towards their goals. But I have a lot of trouble working my horses.”
 
Answer: There are many ways too look at this. Here are a few to consider.
Look for similarities or contrasts between your goals with your horse vs your customers horses. 
Do you plan to show in the same discipline with your horse? Do you plan to keep this horse forever or sell? Do you feel judged by ‘others’ if you work your horse before customers horses? This podcast goes deeper into this subject.
