“I just haven’t had time.” How many times have we used this excuse? Maybe we were referring to riding our horses, or maybe we were thinking about the laundry we haven’t folded yet. But, the truth is, we always have the time. We just might not have the necessary level of commitment. Commitment is a funny thing. Our minds are always at war against us. This is because our brains are wired to talk us out of anything that has the potential to cause us pain or discomfort. The first battle we have to win is the battle between our own two ears. We cannot let our minds talk us out of making commitments. Making a commitment can be uncomfortable, especially when we are faced with time constraints. Having time and making time are two completely different concepts. We wake up each morning with the same amount of hours in our day as the day before. Our priorities determine how we spend this time. If you find yourself “not having time” to do something, it might be time to reevaluate your priorities to make sure they are aligning with your goals. When you are choosing which activities you will commit your time to, ask yourself: “Is this supporting the way I want to represent myself and my program?” You might be surprised how clear your priorities become after asking this question. In all phases of my life, commitment has proven to be an essential piece of the success puzzle. I’ve learned that if I don’t make the commitment to progress myself or my horse, neither one of us ever get to where we want to be.
