    Why So Many People Resist Positive Reinforcement Horse Training

    Many horse owners resist positive reinforcement because it challenges old beliefs about control and dominance. This heartfelt reflection explores why traditional methods fail, how wild horses reveal the truth about fear and trust, and what happens when humans finally cross the threshold into empathy-based training. Real partnership starts when both horse and human feel safe enough to choose it.

    Copy Cats in Small Business

    The world is full of copying in terms of content. Every idea is borrowed, all or in part, by someone else, with or without them realizing it. There are very few totally unique ideas. If your business, idea or product is a target of constant copycat behavior, then you are certainly not alone. However, your thoughts and feelings about how to deal with the issue can take you on drastically different paths that could have real implications for your business. This just happened to me and I have gone from pissed, resentful, upset, conflicted and now just ready to share it all with you on my podcast,

    Don’t sell yourself short! Stop Giving Yourself Away for Free

    Your expertise may be a byproduct of the hours you put into your business, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t capitalize on it. Folks that are only interesting in picking someone’s brain—and not engaging their business or reciprocating any value—will monopolize your time. And time is your most valuable asset! Since you run a for-profit business, your ultimate goal is to earn money and benefit from the connections your make along the way. Your experience and talent are what sets you apart from the competition. And as a professional, if you give that up for free, you eventually lose leverage and the position to negotiate. 1. Establish healthy boundaries 2. Take responsibility for your emotions Either change the situation, or change how you respond to the situation. Perhaps you decide to walk away and enter a new environment. 3. Let other people be responsible for their emotions don't take on responsibility for other people's emotions. You can't make everyone happy, and you can't make anyone mad. 4. Acknowledge your choices acknowledging you have some say in the matter empowers you to take responsibility for your own life. 5. Live according to your values You'll care less about going along with the crowd, and you'll be less concerned about other people's opinions when you're clear on your values. Identify the things that are most important to you, and live accordingly. 6. Forgive, and move forward Holding onto a grudge diminishes your life, not anyone else's. 7. Stop trying to prove people wrong Work on goals that matter to you. 8. Don't let your self-worth depend on other people's opinions Don't make your self-worth dependent on anyone else. 9. Don't waste energy complaining Choose to use your time and energy on more positive, worthwhile activities. 10. Stop thinking about unhelpful interactions with others While you certainly want to learn from mistakes and plan for the future, don't ruminate on the hurtful things someone already said or the rude comments they might make in the future.

    Running Your Business OUTSIDE of Social Media

    I have warned many farmers and small business' about the issues with running your business through Facebook or "META". With the latest shutdown of the social media giant, the ripple effect became a worldwide issue within minutes.The point is... YOUR BUSINESS SHOULD NOT LIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA. You NEED a website and you NEED to start sharing your photos, blogs/stories, commerce and retail to your website FIRST and then to social media second. While you are on my website, make sure to subscribe to stay in touch with my news and updates.
