For Granted
So many things I have taken for granted. "The Merriam-Webster Dictionary" definition: 2: something granted; esp: a gift for a particular purpose. I looked that up this evening. It is the first time I've ever wondered what the meaning of that word "granted" in the term "take for granted" meant.I looked it up in "Webster's Encyclopedic Unabridged Dictionary of the English Language" and found a more in-depth definiti

For your next couple of lessons, I would do a regular warm up at trot and then back on the lunge line at canter. Spend at least 20 minutes on the lunge line per lesson working at the canter and at your upward and down ward transitions. Now that you feel comfortable on the lu

Presentation Tools
In the discussion of honing the art of presentation, the focus is quite often centered on the speaker’s talent, with little emphasis on the importance of the information they are being tasked to relate. It is obvious that the techniques associated with audience interaction comprise a large percentage of the formula for success. A good speaker can work around the weaknesses of their material, apply limited resources, ov

Yes, I can. Without actually seeing you ride it is hard to determine why you are afraid - but I will touch on all the common reasons horse riders can sometimes be afraid to canter. There are many reasons why riders might be a little afraid and this problem is more common than many people may think.

You may be afraid to canter because you have had a previous fall. How often have you heard you are not a rider until you have fallen ten times? I have heard this saying many times. Many riders are quite lucky and have no serious injuries from falling. Others have had serious falls and it does require some time to build up their confidence again.

You are not alone. The first thing you must know is that canter is not necessarily faster than trot. It is just a different way the horse's feet hit the ground. Canter is actually easier to sit to than the trot. If you can trot you can by all means stay on during the canter. First, I would recommend a few lessons at the trot by a qualified instructor. Once you begin feeling comfortable at the trot, put your horse on a lunge line at the trot and drop your reins. Your instructor will obviously be at the other end of the lunge line. Start to feel your horse's rhythm and start concentrating on yourself.

Now that you have feel comfortable at the trot without reins, pick up your reins staying at the trot and on the lunge line, then ask your horse to canter. Canter a couple of circles around - both directions and stop your lesson or continue with something else that does not require the canter. For your next couple of lessons, I would do a regular warm up at trot and then back on the lunge line at canter. Spend at least 20 minutes on the lunge line per lesson working at the canter and at your upward and down ward transitions. Now that you feel comfortable on the lun

Coping with Christmas - Managing the Pressures
s we approach the “season of good cheer” as it is known to many in the West, I wonder how many people view the passing of December with an increasing sense of dread?What does Christmas mean for you? A time to celebrate the birth of Christ? A time to think about your fellow human beings and a wish to share and care? A time to enjoy yourself? A time for spending time with loved ones?Or, is it a time of ha

List Building With JV Partners II
My best guess to you would be to be careful how you use these swaps. Generally shoot to do these mailings with people who have roughly the same number of subscribers as you do, or more. This way you can almost guarantee that the gain you get is at least as great as what you lose.So how do you find JV partners like this?First of all, anyone who emails you regularly, and you approve of his mailings, makes a

The Four Techniques
Theoretical Physicists have made observations about time, concluding that it is speeding up. As the universe expands, time speeds up. Well, for those of us down here on the street, that's a no-brainer. Every year, every month, every week, sometimes seems like a break-neck rush from one crucial task to another. If we can keep--or find--our sense of humor through it all, and gain a moment of perspective, we might realize t

VoIP and Packet Switching Technology
One of the reasons VoIP is so successful and advantageous is it uses packet switching technology rather than circuit switching technology to provide phone services. Most phone companies use circuit switching technology. Packet switching technology is different in that it allows multiple phone calls to occur within the same space a single phone call would occupy using a circuit network.This means less transmission

If working on the lunge line is not working for you, ask your for instructor to provide a lesson horse, a nice slow school horse who would be more suitable to canter on. Take a few lessons on the lesson horse and start to feel comfortable. Once you are comfortable - go back to lessons on the lunge line with your own horse.

Another idea, if the two ideas above do not seem to work for your situation, then start to learn some emergency dismounts. Emergency dismounts can be very helpful and many riders learn them when they start to canter, in their lesson programs. An emergency dismount if practiced will become automatic when things are gong wrong. On the other side of the spectrum, some instructors do not teach them simply because they do not want their riders bailing every time one little thing goes wrong.

An emergency dismount works like this. Keep your horse on the rail and ask him/her to trot, once your horse has a steady rhythmic trot, kick your outside leg out of the stirrup, lean forward and swing your outside leg back and over the saddle - the opposite of when you would get on. Then push yourself away from the horse and grab the reins to stop the horse. Another option is just to loop reins through your arm so when you land you still have a hold of them. The emergency dismou
