Getting Started
"As a single footstep will not make a path on the earth, so a single thought will not make a pathway in the mind....we must think over and over the kind of thoughts we wish to dominate our lives." - Henry David Thoreau
Members of RSG generally follow one of two paths. They either like to cruise around the site picking and choosing various articles and downloads or they want to follow the RSG System.
Here are some Tips and Recommendations for both types of members and specific instructions for those of you who wish to follow the RSG System.
Tips & Recommendations:
It is a good idea to date, save and/or print your completed assessments as they provide you with valuable information about your riding and you may want to refer to them in the future.
Don't forget to use the One on One get started help that is available to all our year membership holders. You can use it at any time. Often the best plan is to review the material and then get help with the specific areas that are most important to you.
You will likely want to re-take most of the assessments on a semi-regular basis to check your progress and your current competitive state.
Take your time, you will be learning skills and information that you will likely be using for years to come.
Draw on support articles and additional downloads to increase your knowledge, motivation and capabilities.
Keep coming back to the site as there are always new articles, downloads and exercises to help you stay motivated and on top of your game.
Stay in contact. Let us know via email what areas you would like help with and we'll respond, either in our general ongoing e-mail support or we'll send you a personal e-mail with help and support.
