Stretch yourself
Very simply there are three areas in which we can operate. They are the comfort zone, the stretch zone and the over-stretch zone. The basic principle is that we need to work mostly in the comfort zone, occasionally in the stretch zone and never in the over-stretch zone. (The same applies to your horse). To improve your confidence, experiment with expanding your comfort zone by working in the stretch zone - without over-stretching yourself!
