Cattle saved these Sandhills that I call home. #sp

Hey, it’s me - T. I am a born and raised Nebra

Hey, it’s me - T.

I am a born and raised Nebraska girl.

I’m married to my favorite human, together we’re raising three awesome little humans.

I like my shades big and my hills sandy (read – I like big sunglasses and reside + ranch in the Nebraska Sandhills.

I am the instagrammer formerly known as faith family and beef. And while faith, family, and beef will always be my top priorities, I’ve recently discovered/stepped into new purpose - that of drawing good movement, i.e. helping others grow in self-awareness using the tool of the Enneagram so that they might understand themselves better.

I’ll be talking a lot about good movement here on the ‘gram, but if you’d like to learn even more about drawing good movement, my Enneagram services, and insider info - be sure to click the link in my bio and get on my email list.

“If you’re constantly looking for greener past

“If you’re constantly looking for greener pastures, you’ll never see the beauty of the one you’re currently in.”

I binged all of Shawn Achor’s books and I honestly can’t remember now which one that quote is from, but it’s a great one to ruminate on. (pun intended)

It’s great to strive for better, for greener, but what beauty do you see right now where your feet are?

There have been multiple occasions when Mr. FFB and I, or one of the two of us, have headed out intent on making a herd move only to turn around and come home because our minds weren’t right.

Good movement doesn’t happen when we have a grouch on and are unwilling to understand. It doesn’t happen with a bad attitude or a heavy hand. And it most certainly does not happen if you try to force it.

This is true of cattle. The same is true of people.

If you try to force folks into your way of thinking, or come at them with a grouch on, you’re not likely to get a great response.

They’re more likely to shut down or give you the finger. All movement in the conversation will stop, or worse, they’ll get on the fight.

Moral of the story - a bad attitude and force will not yield good movement.

🙋‍♀️ if you’re ready to learn more about drawing good movement from yourself, your herd, and other humans.

Preconditioning is when we bring the calves in for

Preconditioning is when we bring the calves in for their second round of vaccinations and a dewormer. They also get poured with a fly repellent and so do the cows.

We start the day gathering the herd. The cows are sorted into a pen and poured on the way by. While the calves go through the alley for their shots and pour. When we’re all done we count the cows, then the calves, put them back together, and pick up the panels (portable fence) and alley we set up to get the job done.

Picking up panels is how I smashed my thumb. I pulled the pin, separated the two panels, and dropped the pin back in the ears of one panels it without moving my thumb out of the way.😫

The throbbing has stopped, but it’s now a nice shade of purple. 😅

I very recently had someone (lookin’ at you @coach_kiah) tell me that every time she heard me talk about good movement, she couldn’t help but think of poop.

And you know what, I’m not even a little bit offended. Because here’s the thing - it’s the same concept.

We can’t force it and have it be a good movement.

Whether it’s in conversation, with our livestock, or on the John - good movement isn’t forced. It starts with us having an understanding of ourselves first, then the situation, and adjusting how we approach it to foster that free flowing good movement.

And also, now I gotta know - what immediately comes to mind when you hear the phrase “good movement”?

Everyone wants a formula - a straight-forward, sure-fire way to do things.

formula for making decisions.
formula for communicating, conversation, and social sharing.
formula for growing crops, for grazing livestock, for raising kids.

We want to plug the variables in and get the solution.

Truth is, there are no formulas in life. But there are solutions.

The solutions lie in the feel.

Feel, you know - awareness, getting familiar with whatever it is you’re facing. Feel.

The solution to the decision, the communication, the crops, cattle, kids - it comes not in a formula but in getting familiar with yourself and the situation.

There are no formulas, only feel.
