We need to create a moment of silence after our aids make a request of our horse. We do not need to nag until we get the answer we want. We do not need to prevent them from making a mistake. It is our job to present our request with accurate aids. It is the horse's job to interpret that request and formulate a response. They might get it wrong. Let them. Do not get frustrated, angry or irritated. Review and present your aids again. Do not make your aids more firm. Just present and offer a moment of silence for the horse to process.
