Answer 1:
This sounds to me like a relationship problem. Your horse either doesn't want to be with you, or doesn't respect you as the leader, and therefore wants to go his own way, maybe eat some grass, mosey over his buddy, etc.
If he often pushes into you or does other disrespectful things, you need to do more groundwork to gain his respect.
To make him want to be around you more, do more plesant things with him. Catch him, then let him graze, find his favorite place(s) to be scratched, etc. make experiences with you plesant.
So, do groundwork and have some chill time with him to improve your relationship.
Also, do not give into him when he pulls away. You need to keep your arm as still as you can, like a post. This way, it is similar to him being tied. If he pulls back, he creates pressure on himself, when he comes toward the pressure, he releases the pressure. It was all him. I advise using a rope halter, at least for a little bit because they have pressure points and will make turning away from you more unpleasant than a broad, flat halter.
Answer 2:
OK, i cant tell you how to stop them but i can tell you how to control them better.
If your are talking about leading a horse with a beginner rider (so a horse with saddle and bridle on) then clip the lead rope onto the bit (the ring part just next to their mouth) and then pull the rope through the other ring (next to you) so basically you have a "second" rein
If you are talking about a horse with just a head collar on then the best thing to do is once the lead rope is clipped on wrap it in front on the horses nose and pull it through the other side of the head collar
hope this helps :)

How do you do a half halt in horse riding?
You cannot necessarily half halt a horse. You can slow him down. Halt means stop completely and there is no way for a horse to be partially stopped. By pulling tenderly on the reins you can slow him down as quickly or as slowly as you want depending on your level of strength and speed you use to transfer your message to the horse through his reins.

How do you stop your horse running of in hand?
To stop this you will need to be firm and in control of the horse. You have to establish yourself as 'herd leader' by making the horse move where ever and whenever you want it to, but don't bully the horse either or it will fight back. To begin, make sure you are in an enclosed area and there are no distractions around. You should have a halter and long 10-14 foot lead rope. Begin by backing the horse up, getting him to move forward and then sideways. After that lead him around the space, if he lags behind swing the end of the rope gently at his hindquarters to make him move forward. If he barges ahead, then place your arm or the handle end of a whip in front of him to stop him. It may take weeks or even months to correct this, but once you do, don't let him fall back into bad habits again.

What is ground driving a horse?
You tack the horse up, but rather than mounting, you clip two long rope to each side of the bit, slide the ropes through the stirrups, and then walk behind the horse and begin teaching it to respond to your cues, even when he can't see you. Most of the time you use a verbal cue to get them to walk or speed up, and then use the rope as if they were reins to turn and stop the horse.
How do you make your horse back up?
Well this will depend on if you mean from the saddle or from the ground. If you mean from the ground then you need to have a properly fitted halter and lead rope. Gently push the rope towards the horses chest and say 'Back.' if the horse doesn't move then you can push the rope and your fist into it' chest and say 'Back' another time. The horse should start to back up, once it does allow it to stand still and give it a pat for a reward. If you mean under saddle then you need to sit deep in the saddle close your legs briefly against it's sides then gently close your fingers on the reins. Don't pull on the reins as this allows the horse to push against your hand and keep moving. The horse should come to a stop, if not repeat the same steps and say 'whoa.'. Eventually the horse will understand and stop, when it does give it a pat and a kind word then allow it to move off again.

How do I stop my horse and get her to stand still when she gets excited?
For my horse i just hold her lead rope right below her halter and pull down hard and tell her stop very stearnly then she will stand still again until she thinks i forgot, just do it repeativly until your horse knows who is boss Warning: if your horse is truly scared, trying to stop her is not the best idea. Horses are hardwired to run; if possible, let her move forward until she is able to calm down (lunge line, end of a long leadrope, free lunging in arena/pen). If for some reason you really need her to stand still immediately, jerk the lead (consider using a chain) and tap her in the chest with a dressage whip. If riding, sit as deep as you can and pull back (pulling her in a tight circle will also get her to stop). Once she is halted, try to relax (if that's out of the question, you can pull her head around to your knee with one rein to keep her in place.) All of the above a desperate solutions in temporary circumstances. You need to take the time to train you mare out of her bad habit.
