The Go Time Podcast

Clay returned and we got to visit and hear a recap of his 2021 year in Rodeo.  Clay returned to Canada and qualified in 7 rodeos for the Canadian Championship and in the finals goes from last to first place and wins his second CFR. 
We also covered how and what rodeos he runs at to try to qualify for the NFR. 
And my favorite part is a lengthy conversation about his horse Skeeter that comes into play when it comes to training, practice and competition.
 

How do you go from being just a horse crazy kid with no horse to the head farrier for a race horse empire like Ballydoyle, under one of the best race horse trainers in the world like Aiden O'Brien, much less the opportunity to learn under veterinarians at Rood and Riddle Equine Hospital in Kentucky?
Tune in and find out what his path to success looks like in the farrier industry.
The principles of good business apply to all business and opportunities appear to those that are willing to explore the possibilities.

I get the pleasure of visiting with Bill Rogers and discussing his journey to becoming a PGA golfer and how he since has used his experience to pour into others.  One of the fascinating parts of our talk was how Bill saw being in the zone or as he called it, being in the ropes and we discuss the similarities between his sport and equestrian sports.  I got some really good take away info that could be really applicable in the timed event equestrian sports.
Lots of stuff in here that you can apply to competition, work and life in general.
I really enjoyed my time with Bill and am looking forward to having him back someday soon.

Losing in competition is a tough thing to deal with. It can crush your confidence and get into your head when it comes to the next time that you attempt to compete.  Sometimes it is the main difference between first and 50th place.  The crazy thing is that no matter who you are, even if you are one of the most successful people in your sport, you always lose more than you win.  It all boils down to what do you do with the losing.  What you do with the winning is the easy part.

What I want my kids to know about marriage. Is it just a piece of paper, and if not then what is it?
Why is it in the wedding vows the bride is to honor and obey? Why isn't the groom told the same?

John and Krista are wanting to grow their horse businesses so we talk about things I have learned over the years, some what to do and some what not to do.
Enjoy

I get to talk with my good friend Clint Swindall about Leadership.  Clint has written several books on leadership and positive mindset. He has made a career out of helping others to create a good and positive working environment and teaching good leadership.  We talk a little about his background but also got some insight into just what does good leadership look like and where can we see it.  It may shock you just where you can see good leadership.
Enjoy!

Luke Poehlmann and I talk about growing up in small town Texas and about our fathers a little and how their rolls effected us as we became young men.  We also talk about how we can impact our sons and other young men around us.  What does ministry and outreach look like today?  Luke shares a great idea for a creating an open door for discussions between a father and son.

The world will tell you that your are liked for the way you look or how your dressed. It may even tell you that you are more important if you have reached this or only if you have done that.  They want you to think that if you act like this or dress like that then more people will like you.
How do you know what your value is? Who gets to decide that?

In the world today there are a lot of places out there that want to tell girls what their value is. You can let social media tell you what your worth is, you can let a boy tell you what your worth is. So how do you know what your worth is? Who has the  authority to tell you what your value is and what. is your worth?
This is aimed at my two daughters and what I want them to understand when it comes to their worth.
