Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Do you ever worry or wonder that you're not maximizing your life and capturing every opportunity?

Maybe in business you think, gosh, am I leaving money on the table

over there? Or if you're paying attention to people online who are traveling here and traveling

to this country or that city, you're like, that's where I've got to go. That's where I've got to go.

And it just sometimes feels like, yes, you're moving forward and you're busy, but there are other

things you want to be doing too. And how do you possibly make the most of it all? I had this

conversation with a friend recently who let one of the products in her business go, because while

it was profitable, she no longer enjoyed it. And I love the peace that came with that decision.

There was an abundance to her thinking, which was one of, oh, well, there's plenty more.

And if this has made money and it served me and I no longer feel excited, something that I am

going to feel excited by is going to serve me

even more. And she pursued the direction of, frankly, products and services that she felt

most aligned with, not keeping every single thing or jamming it all in just because. And I have a

fable that explains this very, very simply and

powerfully today. Asop's fable, it's called the fisherman and his nets. Very simple. A fisherman

engaged in his calling, made a very successful cast, and captured a great haul of fish.

He managed by a skillful handling of his net to retain all of the large fish and draw them to the shore.

But he could not prevent the smaller fish from falling back through the meshes of the net into the sea.

My friends, what does this tell you?

Focus on the big fish.

I bet this is where the idiom comes from.
