"And then, one morning, you’ll wake up...just as I did...and realize the horse that raised you is tired.
That they need you to be strong one last time."

💔💔💔💔

❤️ There will come a time...When you ride them for the last time.
When you buy their feed and cringe at the price, not knowing it’s the last bag you’ll ever buy.

When you scrub the dirt from beneath your nails, their hair from your clothes...unaware that soon, you’ll miss the mess.

When you text the vet about a mystery lameness, dreading the bill...never realizing it's the final call.

When you clean their sweat from the saddle pad, pick the wads of hair from the washing machine, and don’t think twice about the routine.

When you send their blankets off for repair, frustrated by the baseball sized holes, never imagining they won’t need it next season.

When you cancel a ride because they found the only muddy spot in a ten acre pasture and rolled until they were unrecognizable...just as they always do.

And then, the time will come when you hang up their bridle.
When you clean their halter and tuck it away into a shadowbox, a silent tribute in the hallway.

When you carefully store the tail you sent them to heaven without, waiting to turn it into something that keeps them close.
When you hold onto their worn horseshoes, knowing you’ll never hear them clinking down the barn aisle again.

It never happens the way you expect.
You always think there will be more time.
You’ll wish life had slowed down, just enough for you to be there more, to appreciate them longer.

And then, one morning, you’ll wake up...just as I did...and realize the horse that raised you is tired.
That they need you to be strong one last time.

Maybe, somewhere down the road, another horse will come along and leave their mark upon your heart.

But it won’t be them...they wove themselves into your soul...
And nothing...or no one can take that away.

I don't start many young horses anymore... there seems to be so much pressure to get them going so far so quickly and that's really not the way I like to go.
But, this gal and I have been having a blast. She's learning how to be the bestest big girl, and keeping me entertained with her goofy/sweetheart personality along the way.
Her owners want her to be happy for a long time, and so far, we're on the right track 🥰

Casey Davies-Lloyd

DON'T WAIT UNTIL YOU'RE CONFIDENT TO SHOW UP... SHOW UP UNTIL YOU'RE CONFIDENT!

There is no BIG secret to how you build confidence.

If you want to become confident
just simply show up and put in the work.

Show up...

Try...

Fail..

Show up again...

Fail...

KEEP SHOWING UP...

You will get the results you want...

YOU WILL WIN!

If you want to master confidence you can't just show up when it's convenient, or when you feel like it.

When you show up you can't just half-ass it either. You gotta cut ALL TIES to any and EVERYTHING THAT HOLDS YOU BACK!!!

You gotta be laser focused on your target, whatever it may be. You gotta be committed to the steps in the process. You gotta cut out the bu****it and get on with the program!

Confidence comes easy when you are ALL-IN.

ARE YOU ALL-IN?

QUIT BEING A P***Y AND GET TO WORK

OWN YOUR OWN DECISIONS.

OWN YOUR OWN LIFE!!!
