Setting out with a dream of starting and growing your own practice with horses is exciting! Too often, what soon happens is the day-to-day “stuff” gets in the way and begins to choke out enthusiasm. Expenses mount up when horses are involved or people don’t understand the profound power the horses bring to the picture, and you become exhausted.
It is easy to get caught in a trap of fear. You begin to tell yourself things like:
- I don’t have time for that.
- I don’t know how.
- If I didn’t have _______, then I could______.
- Or some other bit of limiting self-talk.
Hang in there! You can do this. One step at a time. Lay the foundation in one area before going onto the next. Easy Peasy! Keep it simple.
Answer these questions:
What is before you that you need to learn now?
What is the first step in that area?
Who can you ask for help? Be cognizant of who you are asking. There are plenty of people out there willing to play it safe and keep you safely stuck with them.
There is a method to starting and growing a practice. Once you figure out what that looks like for your work, your joy and enthusiasm will return.
This very dynamic is what has spurred us to develop this platform. We want to support you in getting your magic out there. A great starting place is the introduction of your services to your community - which is why we offer you the free Checklist for Success and the upcoming tele-class on setting up and executing your public demonstrations.
Stay tuned for more!
Supporting your dream,
Lora
