Stacy addresses the common feeling of being "behind" in horse training, offering a framework to reassess and recalibrate goals. She provides four key questions to ask yourself when feeling behind, then offers two action steps to move forward productively.
Key points:
• Recognize the difference between having a concrete plan and a
hopeful wish
• Evaluate your reasons for falling behind and practice
self-compassion
• Consider external factors and intentional choices that may have
affected your progress
• Use setbacks as learning opportunities to improve future planning
and decision-making
• Develop a realistic, step-by-step approach to achieve your horse
training goals, rather than relying on vague aspirations
This approach will help you transform feelings of being behind into constructive action.
