Part 2: Slow progress (Are you 'barn sour' with your goal?)
DEEP DIVE into how WE got to this point.
Studying horsemanship seems to trigger waves of emotion.
I have carried this thought and feeling with me the last few rides and it has made a world of difference!
If we look for the lessons… then failure isn’t so scary after all.
Thoughts that remind me of my power to CHOOSE.
Where else could you leverage some humor in your horse goals?!
Counter bend success story continued...
Setbacks/obstacles are a springboard.
What frustration might look like in the model.
My power thought is "I am a creator."
“Success by a thousand choices”
Part 3: (Processing loss during goal) What are the next steps to fully embody the successes we experience?
I have the tools and ability to continue riding rather than aborting the plan as I had in the past.
There’s another thought hidden in there...
Part 2: “I want what you have.”
Peeling them apart will help you take credit
Setback or opportunity to be resourceful
Put the focus on what YOU did.
ONE though/feeling combination at a time
We are stuck
I am capable of figuring out a way to accomplish these goals

Processing loss during goal

Successful ride after a fall on my “reactive” mare!
AND what were you telling yourself that kept that door of possibility open?
What did you tell yourself in that moment that helped you keep going?
What do you need to believe about YOU?
Learning even when you’re not riding.
“How could we go for big changes (achievements) if I don't say yes to small ones?”
Slow progress (Are you 'barn sour' with your goal?)
Coach: What if I told you that you already did start?
Shifting your thoughts to what you can control.
What would you need to believe about yourself in order to release this?
Part 2: "Backwards" steps or uncovering GOLD:🤯 Mind blown!
My brain really wants to offer reasons not to ride.
I now understand why this homework is important. Brain exploded!🤯
Changing muscle memory
Aging
Feelings about current world vs horses
Part 2: "What do you imagine feeling?"
It might be helpful to retrace your steps.
"Backwards" steps or uncovering GOLD
Circumstance—I am having trouble choosing a new horse
'Excited and amazed' then brain skips to what might be wrong
"Enough is a decision, not an amount."
Notice how your thoughts are very focused on him.
What do you imagine feeling?
What is HER story about planning?
Was this a good learning experience, or a little setback?
The power in examining our stories and choosing if we want to keep them.
Part 2: Information from different sources
I do, but I don’t, want to throw in the towel.
Negativity bias vs specific facts
Feeling hangover from yesterday's ride.
Going deeper: explore what IS working.
Horse show nervousness
The balancing act of having a plan and being in the moment .
Exploring how we’re using words and what our intentions are.
How do you synthesize information from different sources?
Does your chosen thought generate that feeling?
How do you define a “good horse person”?
Do you notice a specific contributing feeling in your body?
My new thought feels fake
Wired to look for problems & giving away authority
HELP: I am sabotaging myself
Practicing emotions
Ocean view of horse training
Maybe this is proof of what you are capable of...
INCONSISTENT BEHAVIOR...and pre-planning
'Too far out of it now' or 'showing up for myself today'
Wasting time: annoyed vs amazing
The power of simple.
Indecisiveness: What would I rather spend my energy on that considering and reconsidering this choice?
How would you talk to your best friend...
"maybe if I just beat myself up more, I will actually do the things!"
Strength & posture: Part 2 (disappointed/resolute/creative)
I have a choice! How empowering is that!?!
Is that new thought believable?
“I wonder why she still has questions about this?”
This feeling can come along with me...
Innocent sounding thoughts can be so sneaky
"I can't" vs "I choose not to..."
The horse's behavior is your circumstance.
Your instructor offered you her thought.
Goals are like a GPS
Embarrassment. Once circumstance= 2 models.
Shifting from 'lost/stupid' to capable
Urgency: try to push, chase, fit it “all” in
Confusion: advice from different people
Horse tossing head & regret
Overwhelm: My brain wants to know all the answers before I begin...
Time specific goals and fairness
Looking for a 'right' answer
Stuck or simply part of the journey?
Fear of rejection is normal
How can I best use the exercises for the strength and posture I'm seeking? What else can I do improve our physical abilities?
Should I show my horse or is it too soon?
I am really discouraged by my progress.
