It's All in the Approach...


It's been a while since I have had a chance to post.  Family and work commitments have taken priority.  And the world seems to be getting more hectic.  As the days whiz by, I keep thinking -- tomorrow.  Tomorrow, I will eat better.  Tomorrow, I will exercise more.  Tomorrow, I will get River and I on a new training program.  Tomorrow comes and goes and I haven't started eating better, or exercising more, or starting River and I on that new training program.

I was talking to a co-worker about the need to change their approach to a problem.  Their response was that they had no time to change their approach as they were up to the eyeballs in work.  I responded that if they didn't change their approach, they would always be overwhelmed.

And then it dawned on me -- I need to apply what I said to me and my life.  If I don't change my approach then my life will not change.  Tomorrow will be just like today if I don't change how I am approaching my life  -- so that I can  eat better, exercise more, try a new training program with my horse.

Einstein beat me to the concept.  It's time to change my approach to see those different results.

River and I have gotten to spend more quality time together this week, doing some round penning.  I have been attending a great clinic over several Saturdays to help my confidence around horses.  It's baby steps, but I am on my way to make some of those changes that I promised myself I would do -- tomorrow.
