Download or read book Think Like a Horse written by Grant Golliher and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-05-31 with total page 273 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Think Like a Horse, veteran “horse whisperer” and leadership expert Grant Golliher applies his hard-won horse sense to teach invaluable lessons anyone can use to live a fuller, more successful life. Grant Golliher is what some would call a “horse whisperer,” able to get a wild horse to calmly accept a saddle and a rider without the use of force. Through training thousands of horses, many traumatized or abused, Golliher was able to learn essential lessons about communication, boundaries, fairness, trust, and respect—lessons that apply not just to horses but to humans as well. It’s why celebrities, Fortune 500 executives, professional coaches, supreme court justices, and even ordinary families from around the world flock to his Wyoming ranch every year to take part in what one CEO called “the most transformational experience I have ever encountered.” Horse whispering may sound like magic, but as Grant explains in Think Like a Horse, it’s not really all that mysterious. The lessons he shares are as fundamental and ageless as the relationship between horses, the people who ride them, and the beauty of the West. In fact, it’s an approach that anyone can learn, and should learn, in order to better understand our common humanity, overcome trauma, foster more fulfilled relationships, and unlock untapped potential in virtually every aspect of our lives. All you have to do is think like a horse.

Download or read book Throwing the Diamond Hitch written by Emily Ursuliak and published by . This book was released on 2017 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Diamond Hitch uses, as its source material, a travel diary kept by my grandmother Phyllis and her best friend Anne, during their journey through the interior of British Columbia in 1951. The first half of the trip was taken in an 1927 MG Roadster the two friends had bought together. The women (both in their twenties) recount the story of their drive from Victoria, British Columbia to Red Deer, Alberta, whereupon they buy two horses, plus a pack-horse, to carry their supplies so that the two women might then return to Victoria on horseback--a trip that takes several months to complete. Their trip occurs in a time when, by convention, young women are unlikely to be vacationing on their own, let alone riding horses through mountain passes, and living off of their wits, if not the kindness of strangers. My manuscript highlights the poetic moments from this travel diary, often using dialogue and descriptions taken directly from the text, and reframing the travelogue as a poetic account. The poems in the collection vary in style, and they capture the eccentric people and unusual places encountered by the women. The work also seeks to tackle the underlying gender tensions faced by the characters during their travels."--
