The 3 Secrets To Know
For Successful Horse Training

Last week I spent several hours filming a fellow horse trainer for Super Stars of Horse Training.  Our subject was to learn nature of horses.  It's one of those horse trainer secrets for successful horse training.

While filming, he made a smart statement about horses and training.

He said, "I'll give you the three secrets to horse training. Then you can stop watching this video and start training professionally."

At first, I kinda chuckled. But then I got to thinkin' about it.

What he said has a lot of truth in it.

Sure, there are techniques for getting the results but the techniques are a result of knowing these three secrets.

It's kinda like baking. You know, for instance, to make bread takes flour, water, yeast, and a few other incidentals.

If that's all you know, you could make bread - but you'd have to experiment to get it right. No doubt the first several attempts would be disastrous.

But you know it'll take flour, water to mix it, yeast to raise it,...and you'll have bread.

But there are special combinations of wheat, yeast, flour, baking time, etc. that get the best result.

Those are the techniques.

And my question is...why experiment with trial and error when you could more easily learn the techniques?

But the techniques matter very little if you don't know "why" they work.

For instance, we know gasoline makes an engine work. Gasoline is a liquid, therefore, all liquids will make the engine work.

Huh?

Of course, that's not true.

How do we know?

Because we "know" gasoline is combustible. Not all liquids are. In fact, not all combustible liquids will burn as well as gasoline.

Therefore, we've narrowed down that gasoline is the fuel for our engines because we know its nature.

Hmmmm....we know it's nature.

There's our first clue of what one of the secrets of horse training is.

So what are the other secrets?  Check out the Jim Rea video for the full scoop!
