Welcome to let it be easy with Susie Moore.

My question for you today is this. How flexible are you? I don't mean gymnastics.

I don't mean some kink right here. I just mean flexible in your approach, in your attitude to life.

I can tell you that before I really started doing some deep work on myself I wasn't flexible. I wanted to control things I felt anxious a lot I wanted to control my husband

specifically I could get very irate if things weren't going my way or if life

wasn't complying with how I thought life should be unfolding.

And my friend, I can tell you now, in my opinion, the mark of a very healthy person is how flexible they can be.

Oh okay so you had plans for a picnic but it's raining today? How flexible are you? Oh your project was meant to be

completed by Friday but two or three people are delayed with their actions? How flexible

are you with managing that?

Say you have something planned for this summer, a trip

or some fun event or even a work situation,

and something falls through or someone lets you down or something isn't available

anymore. How flexible are you? When you look at nature, you'll see that the flexible survive, those who can adapt to different conditions in the long term and in the short term. When I meet someone who isn't

flexible at all I can just sense it maybe something happened or I can just kind of

tell they're very rigid and fixed in how they live and what they think and what they believe

Their life I know is going to be harder because nothing stands still nothing is fixed the nature of life is fluid, the nature of life is constant change.

So think to yourself. The next time the next time that maybe the rug gets pulled or someone

shakes things up or your flight's delayed or you get some news that just changes things for you,

maybe it's in a relationship, maybe it's at work, how flexible

are you? You can probably even think in your life too of people who aren't flexible. I know there are a couple of people

relatives that I have who are fixed in their approach and they're a little harder to be around.
