few months ago i was having confidance issuse,had a relaps for some crazy reason,now all these little things my sound so stupid to you but here goes,so i would
feel nervous taking him out to the field on my own
catching him,well not him but worried about other horses in field
keeping him in for a day and then him getting all lively(hes a big boy)
even riding id get nervous in certain situations(if i see something before he does then thinking o god what he gona do !!)

well anyway all these things dont matter anymore,its like something has clicked and i realise that of course i can do it all,it was just a blip i think it was getting older having a child so more responsabillity etc because i use to get on and ride anything and do anything,but i think thats come back and i do feel i can tackle a challenge now,god a crap and pointless post !!

have any of you been like this,once you had got over the little things then it all just clicks back in to place ??

as a kid i had a horrid fall jumping and wouldnt jumped for 6 months then one day out hacking my pony took off and i jumped a log-not by choice! After that it was all fine again!
 
i sometimes still feel like that.........I'm all about the 'what ifs' !!! Like today when i rode F, he started jogging and tossing his head around and I was thinking 'I can't cope with him, he's too much for me' but when i really think about it, i always cope and i have ridden horses like him before, and whats the worst that can happen?? i'll fall off like I have done hundreds of times before??

don't get me wrong i still get butterflies - but I'm getting better
