If you buy the right calf, put in the work, and do everything “right,” you should win.But what if that mindset is actually hurting you?In this episode of The Cattle Coach Show, Kolten breaks down why expectations can be one of the most dangerous mindsets a competitor can have. From the Houston Livestock Show to everyday moments in the barn, he shares how expectations create anxiety, resentment, and ultimately rob people of the joy that brought them into this industry in the first place.Instead, he challenges competitors, parents, and breeders to shift from expectations to actionable goals — focusing on what’s actually within your control.We dive into what it really means to compete at a high level, how to handle outcomes you can’t control, and why “winning owes you nothing” might be the most important lesson in the show cattle world.Topics Covered in This Episode• Why expectations can be more harmful than helpful• The difference between goals and expectations• How lack of control in the show ring affects outcomes• Why blaming judges creates a toxic mindset• How expectations create anxiety and resentment• The role of work ethic vs entitlement in competition• Why focusing on process leads to better long-term successIf you’re involved in show cattle, raising competitive steers, or helping kids navigate the ups and downs of the industry, this episode offers a powerful perspective shift that can change how you approach competition.Because in this business… even when you do everything right, you’re not owed a win.👍 Like the video if you enjoy practical cattle knowledge💬 Drop your thoughts in the comments — have expectations ever cost you in the ring?🔔 Subscribe for more episodes of The Cattle Coach Show#ShowCattle #CattleCoachShow #LivestockCompetition #ShowSteers #CattleIndustry #Mindset #LivestockEducation #BeefCattle #CattleBusiness
