LESSONS FROM THE SADDLE


HAVE AN AGENDA
“know what it is your are trying to achieve, determine how
you are going to do it, then go for it”


NECESSARY TIME-OUT
“you obtain more clarity by seeing things differently
and deliberately disrupting your regular routine”


ATTITUDE CAN OFTEN
DETERMINE THE OUTCOME
“a positive mindset helps you overcome barriers”


STEP-OUT OF YOUR
COMFORT ZONE
“distancing yourself from familiarity means you are
more likely to experience something new”


WARMTH AND NUTRITION
“it’s difﬁcult to sleep when you’re cold and hungry”


BABY STEPS
“it’s much easier to accomplish difﬁcult challenges when
they’re broken-down into smaller parts’


UPS AND DOWNS
“for every steep hill up there’s another easier hill down further on”


PREDICTING THE OUTCOME
“we can often determine how people will behave towards us
by the way we behave towards them”


PEOPLE ARE WEIRD
“some folks place greater emphasise on the type of fuel they’re
ﬁlling their cars with than what they’re feeding their children”


RECOGNITION OF OTHERS
“accepting people for who they are means you don’t have to try
and convince them to be somebody else”


RE-AFFIRM PEOPLES’
IMPORTANCE
“individuals are likely to do more for those who’ve put them in the
position of power than those who’ve undermined them of it”


TIME IS PRECIOUS
“connecting with the present provides you with a greater
appreciation of the moment which you are currently in”


PAY ATTENTION
“even the smallest things can distract you from your goals”


BECOME INQUISITIVE

REWARD YOURSELF REGULARLY
“give yourself something to look forward to every time”


LOOK FOR THE TREASURES
“there is much to be gained from every setback’


USE THE MOMENTUM
“it’s far easier to keep moving than taking off once you have stopped”


EMBRACE CHALLENGES
“things often appear far more difﬁcult at ﬁrst than what
they actually are”


MIX IT UP
“continuously modifying things makes even the
most tedious tasks seem more interesting”


EXCEEDING PERSONAL
EXPECTATIONS
“always try to do a bit more every time than you
originally thought you could do’


CONTINUOUS PROGRESS
“always look for more efﬁcient and effective ways to do things”


DEPOSIT YOUR FEEL-GOODS
“by identifying your personal anchors you develop the ability to
recall familiar emotions at a later time when required”

do if they’re done with passion”


CONCLUSION

people, this has been no exception”
