How do you compare with other horse owners?
How do you compare with other horse riders?
Or owners?
Or trainers?
I have one statement for you:
You don’t.
Another’s journey isn’t the same that you are taking, so YOU shouldn’t be the same. It is also true for your horse.
Yet we often fall into the trap of comparing our progress to others, to help us bench mark our own progress.
Another person is going to differ from us in so many ways.
mindset
health
training and experience
ultimate desire
are just a few examples of significant differences. Then we add our horses to the mix too!
Instead of comparing yourself to others, why not spend some time considering your own true path. The path that will make you happiest. The path that you can fit into your lifestyle.
Once you know what that is, you can move forward, and then you won’t need to compare yourself to anyone else, because there is noone else on this journey but you.
