21.01.2022 I was scared today. I was scared to get on, scared to walk out the yard because I had a bad ride the day before. One bad ride, and it made me scared. I didn’t... know why. I’ve had 1000 bad rides. I’ve had 1000 falls. I’ve broken bones and bruised my pride on countless occasions, but today I was scared. Why? Because confidence is fragile. It takes months and years to build and seconds to lose and yet we are so careless with it. When we get on a horse, we wear a hat to protect our head. We wear body protectors, gloves, boots... We pay so much attention to protecting ourselves physically, we forget that our minds are not invincible, and our confidence certainly is not. Your bank of confidence needs regular deposits, not just from others... but from you. Self confidence is the most valuable currency in life. When you go to get on, and you hesitate, you falter and you start to ask yourself can I do this?, chances are, your account is almost empty. Every time you laugh and say oh no, I’m no good or so and so is 10x better than me, you make a withdrawal from that account, and before you know it, your account is empty and you’re scared to get on. But every time you say I’m really pleased with how that went or I think I rode that really well, your balance increases. We need to learn to give ourselves a break, pat ourselves on the back and allow ourselves to feel proud of where we are - after all, most of the time we’ve worked bloody hard to get there! Recognising your strengths is just as important as recognising your weaknesses. Never allow yourself or anyone else to empty that account. Confidence is valuable, don’t bankrupt yourself.

14.01.2022 First touches always make me so happy. Everyone has had a few days off whilst I have had the cold (not covid I was tested) so today was their first session back and Matilda blew me away with being super about being rubbed with my whip so I thought I would try my hand and well this is how it went. Sterling also had first whip touches today but she is still a little way off with me touching her however she is doing so great with taking food out of my hand and she now approaches me for the hay instead of me having to convince her it’s something yummy. Both girls are making quick progress #wildHorses #wildhorsesofinstagram #brumby #wildhorsetraining #coltstarting #traininghorses #bogongbrumby #VBAMatilda #mustang

07.01.2022 It has been a terrible week here at the farm but look who is happy about graduating to the paddock and not having to live in the yard. Matilda was smiling after Sterling and her were able to stretch their legs a little more. They still haven’t been haltered but both girls are doing very good and being touched and because we don’t have a time limit I want to see how much I can help them progress being in a bigger area. I can easily move them back into my round yard if needed but it gives them a little more freedom to be a horse and I’m sure they feel much better being out in a paddock. #VBAMatilda #VBASterling #wildhorses #brumbies #wildtowonderful #newbeginnings #freedom #graduation
