Riding School

If there is any good advice about horse riding that I can give you on this heavily philosophical site, it is this:

Ride the horse, don't let the horse ride you.

I can't tell if this is a misguided nod to "Save a horse, ride a cowboy," or if you are legitimately giving advice about being more aggressive with the animal so it will do what you desire it to. I feel like the latter could be used as a guide for about any domestic animal, so it fits well I believe!
