Barrel tip: STAY POSITIVE ! Its not just horses that have the built in flight or fight mechanism. We as humans will flight and take the easy way out when times get tough too. It is easier to see the negative than the positive sometimes. To be a mentally tough barrel racer we need a warrior type mentality so we can stay strong and dig ourselves out of trenches, it takes practice and self training to turn negative into positive. They say it takes 21 days to form habit. Commit to 3 weeks of making a conscious effort to turn everything into a positive experience. Every run has a positive to it. Maybe you had a terrible first and second barrel, but WOW what a third. Focus on the third. Focus on the positives. Focus on the good stuff. Maybe you didnt have the greatest turns, but your horse went into the arena well and ran all the way home. Put a positive spin on every run. Have a Fantastic & Blessed week !
