Lessons in Thought Transformation from the Stable
We often look to the barn for lessons in riding, groundwork, or horse care. But what if the greatest teachers in the stable aren't just showing us how to cue a canter or lead respectfully? What if, instead, they're offering profound insights into the very nature of our own minds? Dr. Lew Sterrett, a master of horsemanship, has long illuminated this powerful truth: the most remarkable transformations in a horse occur not just in their physical responses, but in their thinking. It’s this mental shift, this willingness to engage and understand, that holds a mirror up to our own human journey of personal growth and mental agility. Join us as we explore how the wisdom of the stable can guide us to profound thought transformation in our own lives.

My horse, let's call him " Houdini" (because sometimes it feels like he could vanish into thin air!), has developed a rather frustrating habit of turning catching time into a personal game of "keep away." Some days it's a breezy five-minute affair, other days stretch into a twenty-minute cardio session I didn't sign up for. And then there was that day – the day I fell (thankfully, no serious harm done to either of us), which was followed by a grueling forty-minute pursuit. It's safe to say, this isn't just inconvenient; it can be a real safety concern.

In the world of equestrianism, amidst the gleam of polished tack and the rhythmic beat of hooves, lies a fundamental truth that often separates the casual rider from the true horseman: "The rider must learn to become the horse's partner, not its passenger." This simple yet profound statement encapsulates the essence of effective, ethical, and ultimately rewarding horsemanship, urging us to move beyond passive control and embrace a relationship built on mutual understanding, respect, and communication.

A horse will do what you ask—but does it want to? True horsemanship isn’t about control; it’s about connection. A trainer can teach skills, but a horseman builds trust, understanding, and a willingness that comes from mutual respect.

Ray Hunt said it best: ‘A good trainer can make a horse do something, but a great horseman can make a horse want to do it.’

It’s not just about getting results—it’s about how you get there. Are you listening to your horse? Are you meeting it where it is, or just pushing for where you want it to be?

The best horsemen know: it’s a conversation, not a command.

The Difference Between a Horseman and a Horse Trainer Horses have been an integral part of human history for centuries, serving as compani...
