You Are a Dedicated Equestrian on a Personal Path to Mastery


You love working with horses. Perhaps, you also find joy in teaching others. Either way, you're always looking to get better. 

But sometimes, it feels like you're stuck—as if you're in checkmate. 

You aim for a smooth ride when training and teaching...

But Your Plan Doesn't Match Reality


You know what to do and maybe you have years of experience. 

Yet, life has a way of throwing unexpected obstacles you're way.

Stormy weather, sudden injuries, accidents, or illnesses can prevent you from achieving our goals. 

Doubt Can Cloud Your Journey


Thoughts like, "Am I really cut out for this?" or "Can I overcome this challenge?" starts to creep in. 

Feelings of confusion, overwhelm or lack of confidence prevent you from being your best self.

But here's the thing:

The external obstacle isn't the only thing that's holding you back...

Meet Your Invisible Opponent


When we face obstacles, our biggest enemy often lives between our own ears.

It's our brain's bias for negativity, overshadowing the positives in our lives.

This tendency, known as positive-negative asymmetry, is completely natural but not always useful.

And here's the key point:

The Problem Isn't The Problem


The real issue is our thinking about the problem:

  • Thinking that we shouldn't have problems.
  • Believing that our equestrian life should be obstacle-free.
  • Or that everyone else's journey is without problems, except ours.

But let's face the truth:

  • Equestrian live isn't like a Hollywood movie where "they lived happily ever after".
  • Life has never been, nor will it ever be, a constant parade of rainbows, unicorns and daisies— not for anyone!
  • Life has always been a mix of highs and lows — and it's the same for everyone, without exception.

Therefore, the art of equestrian life isn't about avoiding obstacles but about learning how to transform them into opportunities for growth and finding meaning.

Let Me Help You Get Over, Under, Around or Through Any Obstacle

If we haven't met yet...


I'm Marijke de Jong, not only a master horse trainer and mentor instructor, but also a fellow traveral on this challenging journey called life.

Like you, I've faced many challenging situations, both personally and with my horses.

Each obstacle seemed like a test, making me feel like I almost wanted to quit...

But during these moments, I made a crucial discovery: 

  • The obstacles weren't working against me, they were actually unfolding in my life for me.
  • An obstacle isn't a roadblock—it's part of the journey that helps you grow. Yes, the obstacle IS the way.
  • Our brain is the most sophisticated tool on the planet, yet an unsupervised brain can not only ruin our training sessions, but our enrire life!

Therefore:

  • It's essential to not just train our horses but also train our own brains.  
  • With mental gymnatics and the right mental exercises, we can transform any stumbling block into a stepping stone.

I discovered an ancient, yet highly effective and transformative tool to turn any obstacle into an opportunity for incredible growth.

That's why I'm excited to invite you to my Scholars Program. 

Here is the Plan

Your Journey to Self-Mastery

Three Simple Steps:

Join Self-Mastery Scholars

Get access to a new self-mastery lesson every week, and learn a groundbreaking tool to train your brain and think better thoughts, so you can feel empowered no matter the situation.

Embark on a Success Path

If you work with me for 8 weeks, you feel better and stronger emotionally. You'll master the skill to turn any obstacle into an opportunity for learning, growth and finding meaning. 

Unlock Your Best Self

Over the next months, you'll get more tools and strategies to create the habits, time, friendships, relationships, career, success and life that you're meant to have. 

Here's the best part...

Just by joining Self-Mastery Scholars, you'll unlock even more benefits:

  • Peace of Mind

    Learn exactly how to balance the positive-negative asymmetry in your brain so your mind stays calm and untroubled, no matter the obstacle you're facing.

     

  • Feeling Better

    The secret to "feeling empowered no matter what" is the ability to master our emotions and energy. Practice self-mastery to develop emotional strength so you can feel better at any given moment in time.

     

  • Higher Productivity

    Procrastination and inaction can keep  us stuck. The program will help you get out of your own way so you can take action and move forward.

     

  • Your Best Life

    Learn and practice self-mastery tools to manage your time, set goals, grow, contributie, create success, and live life on your terms.  

     

But before we continue, first a quick 'heads-up':


Even though Self-Mastery Scholars has been wonderfully designed to help you overcome obstacles in a structured way as easily as possible, it still requires some dedication and persistent effort on your part.

At the end of the day, YOU are the only person who can change what to think,f eel and donot me, not a book, not a set of how-to videos, not a brand-new membership…. so I’m not about to insult your intelligence by telling you this program will do the magic for you.

However, if you really want to feel better on a consistent basis, and are willing to take some action and put some effort in, then this will be of interest to you.

You can learn how to apply a groundbreaking tool that can change your life in an instant.

So let's dive in, and explore what you'll receive...

"I'm listening today to coaching sessions and I realized I don't want to be without this community! There's something incredibly connecting about hearing everyone be simply, amusingly human. We are possibly our best when we are honest and vulnerable, especially in front of a group! I know, we have access to all of this shared information. I know we have access to all this shared information—podcasts galore and a limitless list of resources with just a single click. I listen in my studio and aspire to be the person I admire. Anyway, what I'm really saying is the community here is way too lovely to leave!!!"

Diane

"The 8 'From Obstacle To Opportunty' Stages are awesome! Thank you!! Self Mastery is so important. I don't want to be stuck any longer. Bring it on!!"

Joceyline

"I really enjoyed the 'From Obstacle to Opportunity' workshops, they have really helped me. Thanks! What has really helped me is just to analyze where this thought is coming from, is it true? Is it real? This has helped me on my journey. My first instinct sometimes when things go wrong is to panic, but I have tools now that enable me to rationalize quicker."

Lot

"What a relieve that we have the freedom to choose our thoughts... It took me some time to really grasp & fully understand this ... yesterday, the coin finally dropped (by unlocking the door), right on time.... Already because of this awareness, I realized that my horses are not as difficult to work with as I was thinking (I allowed to believe it, but it is not the truth). So cool to realize this, and I noticed it works for all my thoughts, so now I already catch new limiting thoughts quicker! I am ready for other options/liberating thoughts!"

Everything Is Online - No Travel Required
