Losing motivation!- any tips to get my mojo back??

You need a wee holiday lol ;) Honestly though, if you can have a week away from your horses, within a few days you'll be dying to get back and probably feel bit guilty for leaving them :p also a little break from each other is a good way to see where it has gone stale.

He had a week or so off from an abscess and sort of missed it but 4 days in and im bored/ uninspired again.

Have long reined all this week!

I need a ponyswap scheme- im sure I would appreciate his perfectness after a couple of weeks with something cheeky!
 
Aha!! My friend is coming over for a sit on, on sunday so hopefully that will spark me up a bit!

Its ridiculous!! All my years of naughty horses I dreamt of having a Perfect P and now I've got him....
 
Book some lessons? Go to a comp or watch one? Try a new riding sport like western / horseball / endurance / whatever? There are loads of disciplines in this month's Your Horse.

Or come & borrow my ex-racer & take him into a busy sj warm-up...if you are still alive, I will g'tee that you will fall in love with yours all over again...
 
How about having a lesson on a really good schoolmaster that's MUCH more advanced than your horse and working at a higher level than you have done in the past (unless of course you and your horse are both already "up there").
 
3 things have helped me in the past:

1) Shopping (although an expensive way to get some mojo back!)
2) Went to a big competition
3) Changed disciplines

I hope you manage to find your mojo again :)
