Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Why Not Ask?

Morning Mantra: "If you never ask, the answer is always, 'No'."     There was a study that determined that 65% of the time when people ask for something, the answer was 'Yes'.  That's more than half of the time!   Yet, we often are so afraid of rejection, that we lack the courage to even ask.  When faced with this, I usually ask myself, "What do I have to lose?"  Certainly not the thing I'm asking about because I don't have it yet. And I remind myself that the answer is a definite NO if I never ask.  So why not ask? #BeWillingToAsk #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie  #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Keep Doing the Same…

Morning Mantra: "If you keep doing what you are doing, you'll keep getting what you're getting."     The limitations we set for ourselves must be recognized so we can push beyond them.   To transcend limitations and form positive new patterns in life based on who you know you can be, we must give up the modes of thinking, feeling and behaving that come from our perceived limitations. We must switch from a sense of lack to a sense that anything is possible.  We must believe we can, to even try.  If we give up mentally before we even try then we have already decided the outcome. Life has no limitations except the ones we create in our minds. #BeLimitless #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

Make the Best of Everything

Morning Mantra: "Happy people don’t always HAVE the best of everything, they just MAKE the best of everything.”   I have always loved this Native American saying.  When I heard it I realized that the sooner you accept the fact that there will always be issues, problems, and set backs in your life, then adjust your attitude, the sooner you will find your happy place. If you are aways begrudging life and the challenges that are apart of it then you will never be truly happy. Things turn out best for people who make the best of how things turn out. #BeAcceptingAndMakeTheBestOfIt #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

When to Listen to Your Inner Voice

Morning Mantra: "In order to love who you are, you cannot hate the experiences that shaped you."    You have an “inner voice” that has opinions on everything you do and what you have been through. That inner voice has its own perspective on you as a person.  If this voice is telling you that because of your past, you have little value, it's WRONG.  You can't change the past, but you can change this negative tone.   The first step in doing that is to acknowledge that the “inner voice” exists. Then do things to change it's narrative.   Surround yourself with positive people, remind yourself that the challenges you’ve overcome in the past have made you STRONG, then use this strength to love yourself deeply.   #BeOkWithThePast #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes

The Comeback

Morning Mantra: "The comeback will be greater than the setback."  Nobody likes a setback. It can help to flip the switch on the impact and try to focus on the fact that every challenge offers a path for growth and improvement.  Just like every inconvenience can inspire you to discover new resourcefulness.  Of course every frustration requires you to strengthen your patience, at the same time every disappointment can help you discover more resolve. From each positive experience, you will learn a few things, but from each negative experience, you learn much more. #BeReadyForTheComeback  #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #Horsehippie #MorningMantra #InspirationalQuotes Image: Jac Worden
