Where the Green Grass Grows: Day 24 - A time PNH made things harder for you and your horse.

Day 24 - A time PNH made things harder for you and your horse.

I don't think it's made anything harder for Tug, but it makes it harder for me when I'd really like to go trail riding with my family. I want to put the relationship first, because I know we're not ready, or we don't need to.

Quotes

Any goal is possible as long as the horse is in charge of the principles and the timeline.

Cause your ideas to become your horse’s ideas but understand his ideas first.

If you always do what you’ve always done, you’ll always get what you’ve always gotten.

Trust that they’ll respond, but be ready to correct; never more one than the other.

Put your heart in you hand and touch your horse with your heart.

Savvy is knowing where to be, when to be, why to be, what to do when you get there, and when to stop doing what you're doing.

Don’t be offended by your horse.

You've got to stand for something or you'll fall for anything.

When you take the halter and lead rope off, the only thing left is the truth.

Isolate, separate, and then recombine.

Do your thinking at night, and you feeling during the day.

Don’t be afraid, but do as I say.

Just being with your horse is important, whether you are sitting on him or standing by his side, hang out with you horse, spend time with your horse.

Inside every gentle horse is a wild horse, and inside every wild horse is a gentle horse.

Don’t walk in front of me, I may not follow; don’t walk behind me, I may not lead; walk beside me and just be my friend. - Unknown
