My friends posted a Cowboy Motto which I agree with but I would like to expand on it a little. The Cowboy Way is much more; it is a way to live life. I did not write the following but I try to live by it. Live each day with courage - Real courage is being scared to death and saddling up anyway. Take pride in your work - Anything worth doing is worth doing right. Always finish what you start - When you’re riding through hell… keep riding. Do what has to be done - It’s not always easy to do the right thing but nobody said it would be. Be tough, but fair - The principle of “do unto others what you would have them do unto you” is nothing more and nothing less than a key to survival. When you make a promise, keep it - A man is only as good as his word. Ride for the brand - The cowboy’s greatest devotion is to his calling and his way of life… “You hire out to a man, you ride for his brand and protect it like it was your own” Talk less and say more - When there’s nothing more to say, don’t be saying it. Remember that some things aren’t for sale - To the cowboy, the best things in life aren’t “things.” Know where to draw the line - There’s a right and there’s a wrong and nothing in between.
