“Horses And The Class Clown”
Did your graduating class have the
proverbial class clown?
Mine did.
He wasn’t serious about too many things – especially school.
In our Calculus class, the teacher would turn his back
to write on the chalk board. When he did, the class clown
would cough and sound like a 6 year old little girl coughing.
Truth told it was FUNNY!!!
Teacher didn’t think it was.
Anyway, the teacher got pretty fired up at him one day
and straightened him out big time.
It wasn’t long before the class clown’s grades were very good.
The question is, how did that happen?
I believe the teacher took a stance
and made the class clown shape up.
The teacher demanded respect.
The funny thing is, that did wonders
for the student.
Because he learned to respect the
teacher, he began listening and then applying himself.
He soon learned although the teacher
was tough…he was fair.
The class clown applied himself and became
one of the best students in the class.
Interestingly, that’s how it’s gonna be with
you and your horses.
Until you’ve established it, you’re
gonna have trouble with your horse.
Established what?
That you’re the leader.
You MUST resolve all respect issues
on the ground. Then you can teach the
horse different things.
When Sam Burrell was interviewed, one of
the questions asked him was:
”What is one of the biggest
mistakes you see people make with horses?”
His answer was:
’Leadership is not established’
If you think about it, that’s so true.
One of the problems is, horse owners don’t
always know what disrespect looks like.
As an example, you may be standing there by your
horse and he nudges you with his nose.
Some people call that cute.
I say the horse is telling you to move.
That’s something you should not allow.
And here’s a profound insight that Sam
said during his interview.
He said: You don’t know what a horse
really thinks of you until you try to ride him.
Amen to that!
Sam’s a sharp trainer. If you haven’t
seen his info yet, I suggest you take a look right now.
