Support groups build champions:

Talent, skills, strong mental mindset, and confidence. You can have it all. You can be the whole package. But if you’re lacking one important thing then your journey is going to be very difficult. You need a strong support group. You need to surround yourself with people that believe in you and your dreams. You need people there to pick you up when you fall and tell you to get up. I don’t care if you are the most well-rounded athlete in the nation, if you are doing this journey alone it can be very challenging. Every great athlete has somebody in their life that has been there through every up and down in their career. Somebody to lean on when things get tough. Someone to remind you that if you take away your athletic ability that you are still loved. They love you regardless of how talented you are. They love and support you even on your worst days. Those are the kind of things that build champions. Surround yourself with people that love you regardless of how the rodeo goes. People that will bring peace and positivity to your life. Friends are great, but sometimes friends are around for the wrong reason. Find your people that have been with you through it all. Find your people that give you the tough love when you need it most. A strong support group will build champions. And champions will never be average to those that truly love and support them. Find your people and don’t take this journey alone.

To the girl who pulls up with the cheapest tack in a beat-up bumper pull dragged behind a truck that's probably older than you;
I see you.
I know pulling in next to the big LQ trailers filled with custom tack is intimidating and makes you feel inferior. You are not. Just remember it's not what rig you pull up in, but what you back out of it that matters.

To the girl with the fancy tack in the big LQ trailer;
I see you.
I know how hard you work. You deserve that big rig and nice leatherwork. And you need it, because you have a big rodeo family. You need the room and high quality tack to fit you all and hold up to use. Just remember the opinions of the few do not affect your success.

To the girl who can't seem to pull a check;
I see you.
I know you bought dirt cheap horses and made them run twice as good as they should. You put in so much heart that you get more out of them. Just remember your efforts now will reward you later when that special horse finds you.

To the girl who runs tough that everyone assumes spent an exorbitant amount on her horsepower;
I see you.
I know you trained those horses. You spent time hunting for that "champagne taste on a beer budget" prospect. You put in the hours from the ground to the pay window to get where you are. Just remember to never doubt your abilities.

To the girl who rides big money horses and hears second hand whispers about how spoiled you are;
I see you.
I know you're humble and thankful--not lucky, blessed. You work hard to stay on top and you ride those horses and win. Not everyone can do that. Just remember even though you didn't train them, you aren't any less than those who did--your job is different, but not lesser.

The point is: we all have our own path. And none of them are wrong. We are individuals with completely different lives. As a whole, we are equestrians and should support each other no matter what. We all get on from the same side and pay the same fees. And we all strive for improvement.

It isn't where you start, it's where you finish.
Finish strong.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻, was once a young child dreaming of the day she’ll have her very own horse as a best friend. Dreaming of all the time she would spend with the horse without asking for anything, other than a listening ear.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻, was once a teenager dreaming big. Not spending as much time as she did when she needed that listening ear, but spending time perfecting her horses way of going, day in day out. Instead of spending time asking for nothing, she spent her time asking for a lot.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻, was once an adult. Lost dreams kept her awake at night. She spends no time asking for nothing, but all her time asking for everything plus the world. She feels unsatisfied and inadequate. Her horse isn’t giving her the big dream she wanted.

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻, one day realised that her horse was no longer her best friend or a listening ear. But was an object to which she hoped she’d get credit for. She then realised she spent years trying to get something out of an animal that didn’t need to give anything to her. She realised she become a 𝗕𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗘𝗾𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗮𝗻, completely forgetting why she wanted a horse in the first place.

Take your 𝗯𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗲𝗿𝘀 𝗼𝗳𝗳. Remember you’re 𝗪𝗵𝘆.
