Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.

Hello my friends.

How are you doing this time of year? This episode comes out the day after Christmas day.

In the UK we call it Boxing Day. In the US it doesn't really have a name it's not a holiday but in the UK

we always take the day after Christmas off it is a public holiday everybody everybody rests, and I like it, I have to say, I kind of miss it.

When I had my corporate job, it wasn't a holiday that was observed, and I was like, hmm, how about that?

Well, how are you doing this week? I've heard from a few people that they find it hard to disconnect.

And I don't just mean disconnect from your phones

or have a digital break.

I mean, when life is go-go, right, and we're attached to our laptops,

attached to our email, attached to our work, it can be kind of tricky to have an entirely quiet week off

without just feeling that kind of muscle memory of just reaching for the apps and reaching for the connectivity online,

which can kind of make us feel like we're still in that adrenaline phase of working,

even though we may be with our family, or we may be around people who aren't working because they're just, you know, they're taking this time off.

Well, I want to share a thought with you today that I realized, what was a thought that I had maybe 10 or so years ago that's

always stuck with me. And it's this. There will always be more that you can do.

Always. In fact, I think I heard this from an author.

He said, being a writer is like having homework every day for the rest of your life, right? It's never over. And if you're a

content creator like me, you're someone who maybe has a podcast or has a business or

it's even just

you find it very engaging.

or you're just used to showing up each day with such commitment.
