Put the Relationship First
Always. Always. Always. If you put the Relationship first, everything else falls into place. It's not about the _______.... It's about the Relationship!
Be the Best Me That I Can Be
Positive and Progressive. Some people forget to keep progressing and learning. Others forget to count their blessings and look on the bright side.
Get it Done, with a Little Fun
Imagination isn't frivolous. Imagination can mean getting it done with a little fun.
Exceed Expectations
I'm really big on this concept. So many people set a status quo for young people around my age. It seems as though they say, "You don't really need to improve, you're perfect the way you are!" Not true. We are always in need of improvement.
Embrace Never Ending Self Improvement
We cannot improve ourselves, this is not what it's saying. A lot of people say it's the horse that needs improving, when really it's us. That's why it's called "Self Improvement".
Do More With Less
I think this really goes with "Undemanding time" and "Riding for tomorrow". You can change the way your horse thinks by living in the moment. Spending undemanding and what others would call "meaningless" time with your horse will cause your horse to change everything he ever thought of you. They can sometimes think that we're out there to do something. We can do more with less if you only do nothing.
Be Humble
This ties into Attitude. We can have all the "right" answers and something that was once milk and honey can turn into a moldy and bitter drink. It's all about Attitude.
Truth, Transparency & Trust
I don't know why but I usually think of these with Liberty. Liberty reveals these. It' makes your truth and trust transparent.
Keep it Natural
Keeping it Natural is not just the way you communicate with your horse, it's a lifestyle. Everything will tie into this concept.
