Good horse people often say, “If in doubt, do less”. If a person does too much, it is over and done with and can’t be taken back. But if you do less, you can always do more if you need to. This concept is incorporated in the idea, ”Always leave them wanting more.”
If I asked most people to draw a picture of a horse chances are they would draw a head attached to a neck, attached to a body, attached to four legs, and finally add a tail, ears, eyes, etc to their masterpiece.
