Horse Hippie’s Morning Mantras

Speak Up

Morning Mantra: "Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." On his birthday I like to use a quote from Martin Luther King Jr.   This quote reminds us that not speaking up, speaks volumes. Silence becomes cowardice when occasions demand speaking out the whole truth and acting accordingly. We are at a pivotal point in our country, some see it clearly as a way to recognize that everyone on earth is connected. Because it’s not possible to be in favor of justice for some people and not being in favor of justice for all people. There are no borders, states, cities, races, cultures, or genders when you look at the Earth from space.  There’s no us versus them. It’s just one big beautiful blue dot trying to support the billions of humans that depend on it. It’s man that creates the chaos. It’s humans that separate, segregate, and divide us. That create an "Us vs Them".  But it’s up to us whether we allow it or not.  I am willing to take a stand. I am willing to say how I feel. My truth is that no matter where you are now, where you come from, or who you love, you are welcome here.  I believe the only way forward is together.

Don’t Dodge Change

Morning Mantra: "What if the change you are avoiding is the one that gives you wings?" If you are serious about change, you'll have to go through uncomfortable situations.  Stop trying to dodge the process. It's the only way to grow. The work you are avoiding is the work you need to do. Real change usually asks us to sit with discomfort instead of rushing past it. Growth tends to happen when we allow the process to unfold at a pace we can actually hold. The process can feel uncomfortable, but meeting it with patience and care makes growth more sustainable and less overwhelming. If you dodge, you stay lodged. #BeOpenToChange #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

Everyone is Your Teacher

Morning Mantra: "In life, everyone is your teacher." Some people teach us what to do and some people teach us what not to do. Both are very important.  I’ve learned this the hard way over the years. Some people helped me grow by example, others by contrast—but all of it became part of the lesson.  The people who teach us what not to do often leave the deepest lessons. We learn boundaries from those who crossed them. We learn self-worth from those who didn't see ours. Painful teachers, but powerful ones. Discernment often comes from paying attention to how we feel in someone’s presence. #BeAwareOfTheTeachers #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique Quote: Noreen Kahn

Don’t Cry Before You Try

Morning Mantra: "Don't cry before you try." You've heard them, or maybe it was you that said "I can't do it!" before you even tried.  The only real requirement in life is to try. If you try your best and fail, well at least you tried your best.  Most people quit before they really try.  Things get hard, they decide they can't do it, so they stop trying. Life is an experiment, some things we try and we succeed, others we don't. But if you quit before you tried everything, then whatever it was you just quit wasn't that important to you in the long run. Don't worry about how it looks to others, what will happen if you fail, or how much time will pass during the process. None of that matters if what you are trying to achieve matters to you. So go for it. #BeWilingToTry #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique

The Power of Yet

Morning Mantra: "I believe in the power of yet." The power of Yet is undeniable.  Instead of telling yourself you can't do something, you'll never understand something, you'll always be overweight, you're never going to learn something.... Go for a walk, take a deep breath, then come back and add the word Yet. I can't do this- Yet. I don’t understand-Yet. I’m not where I want to be- Yet. I am not healthy- Yet. I don't know- Yet. It doesn't make sense- Yet. Adding Yet brings hope.  Yet adds possibility. Yet changes your perspective. Yet means anything is possible.  #BeAYetAdder #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #WordsToInspire #InspirationalQuotes #SmallBusinessOwner #WomenOwned #HorseHippieBoutique #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBoutique
