Location: western Nebraska		I have had success at the rodeo level, some at the futurity level, and now at the nbha level.   With being older and having had several bad wrecks -now with quite a few physical problems I feel successful just getting to go to the local barrel races and competing.   I am now riding a herd of "rehab" type horses that I am trying to instill confidence and the "want to" to win in them and every run I make on them that isn't a wreck I feel is success.   So, yes, I feel I am successful in being able to still do what I love, not totally embarrass myself, and sometimes even come home with more money than I spent to enter!  haha

Success is different for every person...it is personal. Some people may feel success if they are winning the 1D, or pro rodeos, others may feel completely successful winning or placing in the 4D. Success for me means that I am facing my fears and challenging myself to get to a point where I feel comfortable and will get out there and compete......and frankly at this point I don't care what my time is....I would imagine as time goes on, that will change. Success is NEVER about what other people think of you.
