Q: When you find yourself stalling in your life, it's time to start figuring out where you want to be. Take some time to think and write about how you want your life to change. Maybe you're unsatisfied with your job or with your health. Once you figure out where you want to be, you need to set goals to get there. For goals to work, you need to be able to meet them regularly. That means that your goals need to be measurable and in small chunks. For instance, if you want to change your career, don't just state "I want a new job." Instead, break that down into small, measurable junks, such as, "I will search job sites every night this week for 30 minutes, and I will apply to at least 3 jobs this week." Make sure to include a time element, as otherwise, the goal is too vague, such as "I will have a new job by the end of next month." However, be realistic. You can't change your whole life overnight. Some goals can't just be met without changing your life around a bit. You don't necessarily need to make drastic changes, but if your goal is to say, get a new job, you'll need to find time to look. If you can't realistically do it in the evening, try stealing 20 minutes in the morning by getting up before everyone else. Now, you need to start acting on your goals. Take the time you need each day to move forward. In addition, try building in some rewards for when you do follow through. For instance, maybe you'll take yourself to the movies if you follow through with your goals for a week. Meeting people helps inspire you to new ideas and new possibilities. In addition, building a network of people is useful for when you want to change jobs or start a new project, as you'll have people to rely on. Plus, new people can help you consider new interests, as you learn about their lives. Try meeting up with people who are already in your contact list for coffee or drinks. However, also take time to meet new people. Try taking a class at your community college or with your parks and rec department. Alternatively, try networking events or meetups you find on social networks.
A: Set goals. Make small, defined goals. Change your lifestyle. Meet your deadlines. Get out, and meet people.

Q: Stand on the horse's left-hand side and make sure it knows you're there. Gently lay the saddle on the horse's back so that its front is just at the horse's withers (shoulder blades). Nestle the saddle back slightly until the top of the saddle appears level. While checking the fit of a new saddle, don't use any type of pad beneath the saddle. But always use a pad before actually mounting a horse. You don't need to use the girth and buckle the saddle in place to check the fit. Lay the chalk on top of the saddle at its midpoint. If the chalk rolls toward the back of the saddle, nestle the saddle a bit further back. If it rolls off one of the sides or towards the front, lift the saddle off and lay it in place a bit further forward and more evenly side-to-side. Don't slide the saddle forward or side-to-side, or you'll go against the grain of the horse's hair and cause discomfort. Slide the first 3 fingers of you hand (oriented vertically) between the bottom of the pommel at the front of the saddle and the horse's withers. If the gap is larger than 3 fingers, the saddle is too narrow. If the gap is less than 3 fingers but more than 2, the saddle is probably all right. If it's 2 fingers or less, though, it's too wide. Slide your fingers beneath the edge of the saddle on both sides. Feel for even contact between saddle and horse at all pointsotherwise, the saddle will rub and cause chafing and discomfort. Run your fingers from front to back, so you're going with the grain of the horse's hair. Stand to the front and side of one of the horse's front shoulders and look beneath the saddle from front to back. Check for daylight coming from the rear of the saddle, which means the saddle makes no contact with the horse's spine. The gap should appear to be roughly 3 finger widths high throughout. If it's higher, the saddle is too narrow; if it's much lower, the saddle is too wide for the horse. Depending on your respective heights, you may need to stand on a mounting block to get a clear view beneath the saddle.
A: Place the saddle on the horse without a pad underneath. Use a piece of chalk to make sure the saddle is level. Check the clearance between the pommel and the withers. Feel for even contact along the sides of the saddle. Look for clearance from end-to-end under the saddle.

Q: . There are many business plan models you can work with ranging from a one page "lean canvas" to 100 pages of complex questions. You will have to figure out which kind works best for you! Your business plan will describe your goals for the school, the reasons they are attainable, and how you plan to achieve them financially. A business plan will be necessary to begin raising funds and fulfilling the incorporation steps necessary to start a school. Consider conducting a feasibility study to determine whether or not opening a school will be a viable option. Early in the startup process, it is essential to take a hard look at your vision and determine how best to proceed. You'll need to determine how many students you're likely to enroll, budget costs, operating costs, upkeep of the grounds, and all other facets of the school's operation to determine if it will be likely to succeed. You may also want to interview people in your community about whether there is a need for this type of school You won't be able to do this by yourself, so one of the first steps in starting your school needs to be appointing like-minded administrators to make up a board of directors who will jointly make all financial and operational decisions, hire faculty, and oversee the school. While an increasing number of micro-schools are run by a single teacher, in general, no school is run by a single "leader." While it's important to establish good leadership as a group, a school is more of a corporation and less of a dictatorship. To find a good board of directors, consider enlisting local members of the education community who may be dissatisfied with their local options and be interested in a more forward-thinking school, like yours. . Your board of directors needs to carefully fill out the articles of incorporation with the state in which you'll be based and register as an educational non-profit. Often, there's a corporate filing office or business bureau with which you can fill out the papers. Usually, there is a fee of several hundred dollars associated with the forms. By filing as a non-profit, you'll be able to receive grants, donations, and other types of funding that wouldn't normally be available to a for-profit organization. To obtain non-profit status, the organization must be organized and operated exclusively for religious, educational, scientific, or other charitable purposes and fulfill the following requirements: Net earnings may not inure to the benefit of any private individual or shareholder. No substantial part of its activity may be attempting to influence legislation and may not intervene in political campaigns. The organization's purposes and activities may not be illegal or violate fundamental public policy. Visit the IRS website or a local office to apply for an Employee Identification Number (EIN). This acts as your corporate SSN, basically. It distinguishes you as a non-profit educational corporation with the IRS, including tax-exempt status. To register your EIN, fill out the IRS form found here. The tax-exempt status can be somewhat time-consuming, and you may want to consult a lawyer to go over the paperwork with you and ensure that you're interpreting and filling it out correctly. To file for tax-exempt status, fill out IRS form 1023, found here.
A:
