Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Do you feel a little lost right now?

I know that a lot of people are looking to pivot this year.

I know towards the end of summer, it's, you know, coming up towards the end of August.

We can start to think, you know, gosh, what do I want to do next? September does bring this

fresh fall energy. And I'm feeling it. I'm feeling it in the air right now. There's change on the

horizon. But with change, especially if we don't have a clear plan, it can bring confusion, it can have us freeze

on the spot, it can have inaction be our default. And if that's how you're feeling right now,

I've got a question for you. Okay, let's put this in literal terms. Imagine you were lost

and you were in the woods. For whatever reason, you're in the woods,

you're alone, and you're lost. What would you do? Really, it's not a true question. What would you do?

What's true of one thing is true of another thing? I'm pretty sure you would walk. You would get up

and do something. You couldn't just sit there. You'd be a sitting duck for bears. Or wouldn't

you like die of thirst or die of hunger? You would have to move. You can't just sit there going, well, is someone going to come

and save me, is some random, hopefully going to walk by at some point and realize I'm here

and give me a plan? No, you would walk. My friends, this is an argument for the bias toward

action. Only action brings clarity. Thinking does not bring clarity.

Action, action, action. Only action cures fear. This metaphor of the words, confusion,

overwhelmed, being stuck, not knowing what the heck is going on, not having a map.

I know we have this instinct to freeze

sometimes to just go, okay, I'm just going to stand still until I know what to do. But what happens

when we move? Right. We beat that paralysis. Walking brings clarity. One small step at a time
