If you put limits on everything you do, physical or anything else, it will spread into your work and into your life. There are no limits. There are only plateaus and you must not stay there. You must go beyond them.

Mistakes happen. Every day, someone somewhere sends the wrong text, misses their appointment, or attaches the wrong file to an email. When we show horses, we might miss a lead, break in front of the judge, or forget our pattern. No matter what the mistake is, the most important part is how you handl...

The new team had some penalties, but some very nice parts, too!
The best part was Kyle Magdalena came out of the show arena smiling and very appreciative of this experience, and he provided a great experience on Tango No Cash.
Thanks to all who were encouraging to this Team!

Long post!

So, a few short weeks ago, we had the opportunity to meet some young riders from several countries that came over to the United States to compete at the Youth World Cup. Both Van and I were just awestruck on how talented and nice these youth riders were! It was such an enjoyable experience. It was fun to cheer on Team United during the AQHYA Youth World Cup.

Little did we know that any of our paths would cross again. Then Kyle Magdalena, from the United Kingdom, was supposed to stay over in the States for the opportunity to show at the AQHA Youth World Championship Show. Unfortunately, his horse that he had on loan to show came up lame.

Kyle had displayed such great horsemanship and was such a poised and polite young man when we had worked with him earlier. It was an easy decision for both Van and I to pay it forward and loan him Tango No Cash for the Youth 14-18 Reining. Tango's owner, John McDaniel, was on board, too!

Enjoy the ride, Kyle!

Have a plan, work hard and make progress. But, don’t lose site of enjoying the sport and your purpose for doing it.

Sometimes it is hard not to get wrapped up in the achievement aspect of the sport. It is important to remind ourselves to enjoy what we are doing. Learn about how to focus on the positives and enjoy the ride.

Happy Easter 🐣
