nails it again... doesn't even know it, but he's mastered equestrian-insight too! Worth following for every day life too, after all our every day habits always translate to our horses. James Clear is a habit genius

It's winter at 7T Stables ~ we may not love the cold but it's undeniably beautiful this time of year. Always feel very fortunate to call this place home

The cold snap and shift work gave us a week of 'rest' ... these two didn't miss a beat ♡

Bit different of a view in a very short amount of time... ❄️

"Do A Little Bit Often" ~The foundation of GSE. The same goes for the reward too, you must accept a little, more often to be effective in the message/lesson; for you too! We've all had that feeling, we just want to keep going because it's feeling so good, but I've always believed that's when you should stop. Keep that 'feeling' fresh for you AND your horse and come back with that to start your next session.

They say there's no place for a time crunch in horsemanship. Although that's true, the concept of being in a rush is never productive BUT on the flip side, if you're on a time crunch go in with the intention that a little is alot and remember how productive that really is. Go back to the basics, find the sweet spot where both of you feel the most comfortable; just don't throw in something entirely new that day. Keep it simple when you have minimal time. Every little bit of time spent is never wasted. Whoever came up with the "1 hour rule" anyway?

☆Try.Something.New☆
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
After years and years of show jumping, I had a desire to expand my knowledge. So I did! With the help of some much more knowledgeable people than I, I found this little gem to explore some cow work on. Admittedly I probably stepped onto a little more caliber than I 'needed' but I was up for the challenge. Why you ask? WHY NOT 🤷‍♀️ This is Wilson, he's a coming 7yr old Hydrive Cat bred gelding with a pretty hefty engine ~ let me share a secret with you ~ there is almost NOTHING as intoxicating as riding a little cow machine like this. This boy has got some jam and style and I am sure grateful to have him help teach me the ropes. Don't worry, we still jump around, well not Wilson....or maybe Wilson should try to jump too since we're talking about learning new things!? LoL 😉

☆Intention☆
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Ever notice how horses are often surprisingly 'good with' little people/non-horsey people? I've witnessed (not with the horse in this photo, this sweet moment is just what triggered the reflection) that rather sensitive reactive horses are surprisingly good with unexpected movements or reaches from small people OR non horse experienced visitors. You get an urge to say "Careful!" and the action has already happened with little to ZERO reaction from the horse? It's intention. OUR intention is to add pressure for some kind of response, whether we're thinking about it or not. Theirs? Just a pet. Literally JUST a pet; nothing more....and they know it. This very fact alone should makes us instantly re-visit and re-flect on how we're always approaching our horses... what IS the intention? What IS the purpose? They already know it before we do, most of the time; and blessed are we, if you ask me, to be presented with such a task to regularly self reflect.

How neat is it that even The Big Guy upstairs offers some of the best Horsemanship advice; although this isn't the first time an inspirational or leadership quote has so much validity to our journey with horses. We learn so much more than just how to safely handle and communicate with them, it often results in significant personal growth too, if you allow it

Outside Stimulus & Focus
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Let me guess, your horse is great in the arena but is a bit fresh outside? It's difficult to manage the difference in reactions from what you're used to. It is for your horse too! It seems extreme right?... all of a sudden they're spooking at everything and can't focus. Horses running in the pasture, yours thinks they should join! Of course they do! They're herd animals. They look for comfort in numbers and follow the 'flight' because that's their nature. I promise they aren't being bad they're just doing what they know. When we manage their environment so much, they too get overstimulated.

Hugo here is the best student. We've been playing alot online, outside, in the wind, dragging tarps and helping him find relaxation even under heavy stimulus. Brain sweat is just as, if not more important than physical sweat. We started snorting and tail up to blinking, chewing and focused on the same games we always play with inside, outside. Good Boy Hugo.
