~ Good reminder for everyone ~

at its best! You know you’re in the right barn when messages like this are written on the feed board 👊 The truth is … success doesn’t happen by chance. It takes showing up when no one’s watching and doing the work that others won’t.

There’s a different kind of ache that comes when your name is no longer on the class list. When your hands remember the jaw line of a lamb; the rhythm a show stick. But your place, now, is the other side of the rail.

It’s not a loss. It’s a passing.
Like a flame finding a new wick to ignite.

You watch them—the ones stepping where you once stood. Their nerves are loud, their focus pure, their hearts beating in time with something they don’t yet have words for… and you feel it all over again. The electricity. The purpose. The thrill as the gate opens.

Only this time, it isn’t about you.
It’s about them.

You catch yourself straightening a back number, steadying a trembling hand, saying the same things you used to need to need to hear:
“Breathe.”
“Trust the work you’ve invested.”
“You’ve got this.”

You see in them the same unshaped hunger that once lived in you, and it breaks you open in the gentlest way, because you know what it means to give everything to something so fleeting.

You thought you’d miss the ring most, but what you really miss is the becoming. And now, somehow, you get to build that for someone else.

Maybe that’s what legacy really is.

Not how many wins you have to your name, but who learns now because you returned to teach them how. To realize the journey was never meant to end with you, but that it was meant to go on through you.

So you stand there, ringside.
Heart both heavy and full.
Watching the kid you once were.
Feeling everything all at once.

And when you really think about it, you’re not on the outside looking in. You’re right where you belong.

A few things that truly hit home:
ATTITUDE - COACHABILITY - PERSEVERANCE

Coachable > talented. Every time.

Because here’s the truth: talent can win a class… but being coachable builds champions who last.

Being coachable means you don’t roll your eyes when someone corrects you in the ring.
It means you actually try the new feeding plan your ag teacher or rep suggests, even if it feels different from what you’re used to.
It means asking questions, listening to the answer, and then applying it—even when it’s not the easy way.

Some of the best kids in this industry aren’t the loudest, flashiest, or most naturally gifted. They’re the ones who:
👉 Take correction without attitude.
👉 Show up ready to learn.
👉 Stay humble enough to admit they don’t know it all.
👉 Trust their coaches, parents, fitters, and mentors to guide them.

The stock show world is full of talent. But talent without teachability hits a ceiling. Coachability? That’s what takes you beyond banners and buckles—straight into success in the barn, the classroom, and life.

Be teachable. Be coachable. That’s the real secret.

✨ Save this as a reminder when the work feels hard. Tag the coach, parent, or mentor who pushes you to be better.
