“Progress is not an illusion; it happens, but it is slow and invariably disappointing.” -George Orwell

Sometimes it is so easy to get discouraged that your progress may look different than those around you. However, no two stories or journeys are the same.

“A person who makes few mistakes makes little progress.” - Bryant McGill

Same goes for your horses. If you’re always babysitting them and never allow them to make a mistake then they not only never learn to think for themselves but you can quickly take the try out of them.

These two sets of tracks are from two different but very athletic horses.
One can now confidently and consistently stop 24+ feet depending on how fast he is running. The other set of tracks is hard to see as they are maybe 12” long but that horse tried equally as hard, his progress just looks different for his stage in life and what his journey has looked like.

Stop measuring yourself or your horse against others in the arena. Set your own goals in achievable ways and don’t be afraid to make mistakes. 

“Slow, steady progress is better than daily excuses.” - Robin Sharma

I wouldn’t tell myself that I’m going to climb Mount Rainier tomorrow because I know that’s not setting myself up to succeed and wouldn’t be an achievable goal. However, if I told myself, I was going to train to climb Mount Rainier next year, then that gives me an achievable goal to work towards. 

Allow yourself to be proud of yourself and all the progress you’ve made. Especially the progress that no one else can see.

Have you ever wondered what the dimensions are for the cutting arena at the Historical Will Rogers Memorial Center & Facilities . Several Cutting Horse Trainers & Ranches have copied the exact layout for their arenas at home to simulate the exact working area. The dimensions for the Will Rogers arena is 125' wide and 116' from the back gate to the judges stands. The timeline is exactly half way at the 58' mark.
This has proven to be one of the best layouts for a cutting show and one of the most consistent anywhere in the world.
