Just good motivation and tips that I’ve learned lately.

Many times horses and people have a bunch of stored up energy, when it is bottled up it manifests itself in different forms such as anxiety, and restlessness. When we let out that energy in healthy ways then will we obtain the desired results we are after. Horses reach their potential learning state when they are present in the classroom, meaning if they are buddied up to their pen or friends or anxious or scared, a portion of their ability to learn is gone. but when we let out the pressures built up then they can take a "deep breath" and actually understand whats going on. 

I learned through experienced trainers and books that knowing where each foot is at, and what it is doing and how you can time your cues with the leaving of a foot can make things easy for a horse to understand. Side by side with that knowing where you are in life right now and where the next step you need to take is; clears the murky waters of life and makes it a little easier to stay in the saddle when things get spunky. 

I talk about being disciplined and never quitting or taking the easy route; I follow the adage "its hard work but its worth it". Two books I highly recommend reading is "if I were to train a horse" by jack brainard and "discipline equals freedom" by jocko Wilink.

This is about one of my colts named Okie, hes a coming 4 year old and is a good work horse -atleast now he is- but in the beginning stages of his training he was a buckin' son of a gun. I talk about ranch work and the little things I tried as I rode him all day. 

Let me know what y'all think! you can contact me through thefaithfulhorsemanship@gmail.com. I do apologize part of the first half of the actual episode about the roan is choppy because of the wind outside, but it only last a couple seconds so stay tuned.
