Achieving your Dreams

Hi all,

Sorry it's been such a long time! Today's post is going to be a bit contrcontrevetial but just hear me out!!!

So as cheesey as this sounds my ultimate dream would to be an Olympic show jumper. The likely good of this happen if is very slim and I have accepted that, I'm not trying to be all oh feel sorry for me I've given up on my dream. No!  Today I realised that when it comes to my horsey life I am happy with how it is at the moment. I was constantly pushing for more wanting more because I had a goal and if I wanted to get there I had to really push for it. Now I am never you g to ride in the Olympics end of story! But at times I have been so set on in wanting to get as close to this as possible I lost a love for what I was doing!

I feel we can apply this in many aspects of life, we get so set on getting good grades we forget about enjoying learning new information, learning about others, ourselves and to be honest I think if we stopped stressing about where we are going and actually enjoyed what we are doing we may well get better results in the future because we have taken the time to understand not just revise words!!

My point is, of course you should strive to achieve what you want but in this process don't loose yourself or the passion for what you are doing.

I would like to thank some people for re-kindling my love for horses as animals, for giving me some confidence in myself and telling me that although I'm not perfect (far from it), although I am not the best at what I do that isn't really what matters. IF you are reading this you know who you are!

My dream is probably different to yours but just think about if getting to where you want to go is worth sacrificing your desire to get there.

I am going to try and post a bit more from now on. Have a good Christmas and if you don't celebrate Christmas have a good break over the festive season.

Lots of love
