Never Feed a Horse You Don't Ride
— A Bold Metaphor for Boundaries, Energy, and Self-Respect
In a world overflowing with distractions and demands, one quote cuts through the noise with raw clarity: "Never feed a horse you don’t ride." It’s more than a saying — it's a philosophy. This short video packs a powerful message for anyone who’s been overextending themselves, investing in relationships, careers, or causes that offer little to no return.
In just under a minute, you’ll be reminded of your value, your power, and the importance of placing your energy where it's respected and reciprocated. Stop pouring into people, situations, or systems that leave you dry. If they’re not riding with you, they shouldn’t be fed by you.
This visual affirmation, set against a gritty spoken-word tone, challenges you to reflect: Who are you feeding in your life that doesn’t show up for you? Whose load are you carrying while your own back breaks?
"Your time, your love, your energy—it’s sacred. Protect it like it matters. Because it does."
Let this be your reminder: you deserve mutual effort. If the horse ain’t yours, don’t waste the hay.
