So lovely watching these two grow as the weeks go by.
Something I heard this week (that I have lived enough to understand well), is the importance of where we get our confidence. If our confidence comes after the positive outcome of lets say, lunging, if we don't have the skill to achieve it today, we can falls to pieces.
However, if I lack the skill of lets say,... starting a brumby, today, but have enough confidence in myself to commit to the outcome, (even if I don't see it today, or next week, or next month), thats how my skills catch up to my commitment.
Self-confidence and skill confidence, you can't have one without the other and I have learnt, they actually grow together. They are grounded in belief, trust, and allowing whatever shows up on that day.
And lastly, you can only see their growth by looking, (and feeling) backwards.
