Smokin K Performance Horses

Check out this Smokin K Student.
Dylan became part of the team January of this year with the basics of riding. We’ve dealt with a lot of rain this year which caused some inconsistencies in weekly lessons but she took hold of every bit of knowledge I threw her way. Over the last 3months she’s been training hard. Which has made this Cowgirl really blossom. Her goal was to become a barrel racer and that goal has clearly been met.
Check out her Friday night run placing 5th in the 2D open and 7th in the 1D youth.
Having the 22nd fastest time out of 104 runners.
We are so proud of you Dylan! Keep showing the world what Smokin K Performance Horses is all about!

There's a famous story of Pablo Picasso.

He was enjoying a meal at a restaurant when a man interrupted him, handed him a napkin and asked:

“Could you sketch something for me? I’ll pay. Name your price.”

Picasso took the napkin, pulled a charcoal pencil from his pocket and started sketching. Using only a few strokes, he drew a goat that was unmistakably a Picasso. He held it up for the man to see.

The man smiled and reached to take the sketch. But Picasso withheld it.

“That will be $100,000.” Picasso said.

The man was astonished. “$100,000?! You drew that in 30 seconds!”

Picasso crumpled up the napkin and stuffed it in his pocket.

“You're wrong.” he said.

“It's taken me 40 years to do that.”

Know your worth.

All horses are different, Treat them as individuals.
Training has become very generic and yes there’s basics to all training but as your horse progresses you’ll find that it’s not a one size fits all situation.
Ride the horse under you at that moment.

Some horses need more than riding to become a winner.

Some horses need to trust you—they need to spend time with you.

Sometimes it’s what you do with the horse other than riding that helps them become great—that extra time spent grooming or just sitting in their stall.

Building a relationship matters to some horses.

my favorite sentence.. STOP BEING LAZY.

👇The Hard Truth👇

Stop being lazy.

If you are doing a job, do it right.

Be detailed-oriented.

Try to be the best even if you don’t like the job or task.

This applies everywhere in life.

Remember—winners do what losers won’t.
