Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

I've been hearing from people in my different communities that they are looking to expand

and shake things up in new ways this year.

And one theme that I've seen coming up again and again is making new friends or

maximizing specific friendships and being intentional with the people that we spend time

within our lives. I really recommend huge intention when it comes to

deciding who you spend time with. I would say at this point in my life I have fewer friends than I've ever had by choice and I sincerely love every single one of them.

There is never a time, even when it's pouring rain outside, but I don't hope someone

secretly cancels. I don't have that, oh, do I really want to see this person. I've been out on the rain twice in the last two

days to see friends that I love and it's just assigned to me that yeah I'm doing my life

right in this area. So what I wanted to share today

was a couple of simple pieces of advice when it comes to becoming the friend that is easy to be with, right?

That is always often just hanging out with the friends that are meaningful and the friends

that matter. and it does require some

initiative on our part.

Friendships don't just happen, they don't make themselves, they require someone to make

an effort.

So I've got a couple of pieces of info here that can be helpful

if being intentional with friendships matters to you.

The first is this. Being easy to be with has so much to do with just your attitude and your energy and it's no secret that positivity attracts right negativity

repels. There's a friend of mine who she used to complain quite a lot about

her husband working too much because he was stuck at the office he'd work at the weekends
