Repost from 2023…. STILL THIS!!! ❤️❤️❤️
👉It’s not about anyone’s opinion. It’s not about winning. It’s about growing. If you’re struggling to tell yourself this. Just show up anyways.
👉You might be the person that lost your heart horse and you’re struggling to find the right fit, and you’re getting frustrated, tired, and you question yourself.
👉You might be bringing up a young horse, and every time you think he’s ready, you mess up, but you come back again.
👉 👉🏻👉🏻You might have overheard somebody say something you didn’t want to hear. And you might have taken it like a shot straight to the heart.(this one hits home)
👉You might be the person that came out of nowhere and blew everyone away. 👏Little do they know you have been working for YEARS. And you think no one saw you then.👏
You might be all of them.
No ones opinion matters. No buckle, trophy, ribbon, or check matters. Nothing matters if you are not there because you love your horse. Because you have a deep love for the sport. Because you get on your horse every day to grow. To make them better. To make yourself better.
You are there because you love it. People talk bad if you lose, and they talk bad if you win. Those aren’t your people.
When you think no one sees you. They do.
All those scenarios I mentioned. I’ve seen them. And I’ve been a lot of them.
When you think no one sees you. Somebody does. I see you. I see you try. I see you struggle. I see you grow.
Never give it up.
Stay strong for that one person that isn’t sure if they want to keep going. They’re watching you. They’re counting on you.
But not to win. They’re counting on you to show up anyways. To not lose heart.
If you think I’m talking about you. I am. I’m talking about those people I’ve seen for years. And the one’s just starting out.
Be encouraged because someone keeps going because you kept going. Because of you, I show up anyways. Because of you I can’t give up.
I said it at the start and I’ll say it again. This is not for the faint of heart.
Stole this from facebook but it’s my photo.
