In addition to focusing on daily riding goals, it is important to write down your longer term goals. Here are some of mine for 2012.
I would like to achieve the following goals by August:
- To ride with smaller posts, hands quiet, and heels down
- Canter a figure eight over a pole with smooth transitions while changing direction
- Land on the correct lead after every fence (9 times out of 10)
- Gauge the right take off spot to a fence, five times in a row, then ten
I would like to achieve the following goals by October:
- Master lead changes
- Gauge correct take off spot from a distance of six strides to a fence
- Complete a course with the right pace, track and balance
- Make it to the jump off in at least one competition
- Ride confidently
