Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Do you ever say that you're too busy for something?

I want to ask this question because too busy has two different subtexts.

I mean sure there are exceptions but when someone says I'm too busy

I know what they're really saying is one of two other things right because if someone's too's too busy, we're like, yeah, yeah,

get it, life's busy, blah, blah, blah, boring, in my opinion,

okay?

But if someone says they're too busy, they're either saying, number one, this isn't a priority right meaning it's it's not

something I want to do it's not of interest to me right now or right now isn't the

right time to be doing it that's cool in case, why don't we just say that?

You know, I'm interested, but that's actually not a priority right now.

First of all, it empowers us, we're speaking the truth, and we're always hearing ourselves talk right so if we say

something isn't a priority that is a powerful position to be in because you know the

priorities and you're in control of your life if you say you're too busy maybe a bit of

a victim of overwhelm and stuff just happening too much, life happening to you,

versus you consciously responding to life and choosing your direction.

So that's one thing we often mean when we say we're too busy. But my friend, there is a sneaky,

sneaky, other subtext that we secretly mean even though we rarely acknowledge it when we say we're too busy.

And I want to give you an example of how I saw this show up actually recently on a coaching call that I was part of and part of my

Visibility accelerator which is my awesome business coaching program. But anyway

there was a lovely woman in the group and she wanted to learn how to do some media

pitching and we came up with some ideas, so really solid awesome juicy ideas, and then we came up with publications to pitch those ideas, right?
