    There's a really great book by a famous mathematician named George Pólya called "You Can Solve It", and it's written a bit technically, but his overarching message is similar in that, you can solve any problem by breaking it down into problems you're comfortable solving. By consistently breaking things down into solvable problems, eventually you can bring it together (which might be another problem in itself) in order to solve the entire thing.

    Riding again after a two year break due to life and illness. My goal is to improve my general fitness for riding again, while redeveloping balance and posture in the saddle.

    Thank-you Callie. Everyone might enjoy the simple (sometimes a bit repetitive) book "Mini Habits"...which is a great viewpoint on how to accomplish the first wee step to starting or changing habits. It has helped me a great deal-especially with habits that might not be so "fun" to incorporate. You'd think time in the saddle would be terrific-and it almost always is-but there are many things that pull me in different directions-feel like priorities-and as I age-I no longer can just hop on bareback and go for a spin...so I have to get all the bells and whistles out-which if I'm sore and tired-often just feel like too much. I also have to feel safe-so I do a lot of ground work "reading" of my little wee mare to assess if today is a good day to do...and then again from the saddle. This has actually made me a better horse person on a lot of levels-and certainly has built our trust up, but nothing builds confidence and riding level skills better than "time in the saddle" practicing things correctly. Don't let anyone talk you into doing something that you really don't feel ready for-though "safe adventures" on a steady horse-are a good way to put a sure smile on your face! You are such a sparkle!

    The One Thing is an incredible book, it helped me focus on what I needed to do to finally start my own small boarding farm. I've just started to re read it to refresh my mindset on what path to take to improve myself as a horsewoman.

    I think the one habit I'm gonna try is to communicate better with my trainer , and if it makes any sense a horse , because one of my main problems isn't. I find my self signaling a horse to do something but if the trainer is not present the horse doesn't respond.

    I guess my goal would be to get my horse to trailer without going nuts on me. he approaches the trailer fine and enters the trailer a little cautious but he does OK but when he finally gets settled in he freaks out and wants to get out. any advice on that one? thanks.

      I can only share what I have done, which is to let go of my "agenda," of getting her in there and be willing to take it SUPER slow and over a period of time and not the day you want to go on the trail ride (been there). LOL. Visit the trailer with the door open, not too close, walk away...closer to the trailer...walk away...closer...walk away...one foot in...back out.... Literally one step at a time. My mare is a rescue and she's not going to be "bossed," around anymore. We have been working on trust and relationship. As Mark Rashid shared with me a long time ago, if you don't have the time to finish it, it's best not to start it. This is just my 2cents and how I've done it, it may not work for anyone else, but she now loads up without a fuss.

      chris heyer, when we were training our mare to become more comfortable in the trailer, we left it in her pen, then fed her in it. At first she would walk in and pull her bin out, but if it secured, your horse should start to become comfortable standing and eating in the trailer. One other though is how dark and enclosed is your trailer, I'm thinking maybe he freaks out when the back door closes? Maybe getting him used to confined spaces, or training in a really open, old style (where the sides are open and the back door only goes up to their but) or something with more space? One more thing... maybe if he is unbalanced or falling on turns, or has had a bad experience with turning ot braking, he could freak out a little when you touch the brakes or take a turn. Just a couple ideas, hopefully they will help somehow! Good luck!

    Hi Callie. Gaining a more consistent and balanced canter is my main goal and my question to you is- should i only attempt my canter on days that my horse and I are in a good headspace on the ground and at the walk trot or should i work on my canter everytime i ride?

    I want to learn how to not bust my butt when a horse spooks like I did the other day. :P Though I guess the butt is the best thing for that...
