Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

I've got to tell you, my friends, I think that there is such a confusion between having a

full life that's fulfilling and a full life that is busy. That simply has a lot of

action and a lot of stuff going on. And this is not a judgment about how anyone lives

however full their days are, but it's very important and no one teaches us

this how to make the distinction of being busy versus being fulfilled. This is how you can simply

think about it. If you are busy, if your plate is full, you might feel

very, very important because you're rushing around and everybody needs you and everything

might seem like it's so important and it all has to happen now. Busy is when there isn't space

or time to add anything to our day. Even if at our most honest level,

we would love to add some things to our days, maybe some rest, time to read, more time with the

people that we love, more time to even just think, to have that gorgeous

space to be, to breathe. Being fulfilled is completely different. A fulfilled person may be busy,

so to speak, or not busy at all. And there's nothing that they want to fill up their days with.

They're not looking to pencil more into their calendar, because how they feel is enough.

I once heard a woman say, you know, thank you so much for this invitation. My plate is as perfectly full as I'd

like it to be right now. She wasn't saying, oh my gosh, I'm so busy. I'm traveling. Oh my gosh.

You know, I just have a million things going on. I'm managing a deadline. That would be a busy person,

someone who can't even take more into their lives, allow more in. Being fulfilled

is maybe having absolutely nothing going on today, not even a workout class, not even a call

with a friend, not even a coffee, nothing. and having that be perfectly enough.

Please, my friends, understand the distinction.
