If At First You Fail, Try Try Again

During the age of four to about thirteen I rode and showed horses. I rode multiple horses during these years. At one point I was riding two horses one named Jack and the other Logan. Logan was the horse that i preferred to ride but my trainer also used to make me ride Jack. Jack was a smaller pony who was very disobedient. He got spooked easily and would bolt. One particular time I remember I was at my trainers house taking a lesson and I about to go over a jump with Jack when all of a sudden he got spooked by something and began running as fast as he could. He jumped the jump and began running around the field. I fell off soon after he jumped the jump because i had lost my balance. I remember I did not want to get back on the pony. I was probably seven or eight at the time so i was very scared to get back on the horse. I remember my trainer made me go get back on the horse and redo the course again and this time make sure nothing went wrong.

This taught me that if I fail at something one I should try again. I was terrified to et back on the horse but I did and I am very thankful to my trainer for making me do so. I was so scared to redo the course but the second time I did everything went perfect. I now know that no matter how scared i am or how bad something went the first time I should always try again. My trainer also taught me to not quick something until you got it right.
