It’s really amazing what a horse will do for you if he understands what you want. And it’s also quite amazing what he’ll do to you if he doesn’t.

Make it a habit to praise when the horse yields.
Nuno Oliveira

Ray Hunt
The horse knows where the person is all the time. Now we are trying to help the person know where the horse is all the time. The horse knows where the person is; the person needs to learn to catch up with the horse on that.

Confidence is knowing you are prepared.
