As another year rolls around, I am reflecting on my main issues with riding from this year, and goals that I can set for myself that are attainable, not ridiculous, like "Become a World Champion!" So here they are, drum roll please!
1.) Don't give up, never, ever give up.
2.) The horses are not my friends, I am not their boss, we are a team, but I am the team leader. We can get along famously, but I don't have to be a dictator, or their friend.
3.) I do not need to impress anyone with my riding, ability, or knowledge.
4.) If I am unsure about something, I must ask for clarification.
That's all!
Xoxo,
BC
Hello there! I just happened to stumble across your blog and thought "Arena Ballerina" was a cute blog title that must signify a dressage rider. Then I noticed you pretty new to the blogosphere, so welcome! It's a pretty awesome place filled with pretty awesome people.
ReplyDeleteMy final observation was that your an AP student. Of that, I can also relate;)
