Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore. I've realized over the years, my friends, that there are almost two ways to understand people.
When two things happen, I think more of a person can be revealed, sometimes really beautifully and sometimes in ways that surprise us. And I think that these two things can be in big and small situations.
It's easy for us to observe certainly in bigger situations, but I'm gonna break down here what they are, and I think it's a fun and powerful thing to be aware of and to observe.
When someone either has a challenge in their life, or when someone has power, We see more of who they are.We just do.We see more of who they are. So think about this.When you or someone you know has a challenge, how do they behave?
This used to be something that was really hard for me, right?Before I let it be easy, I speak a lot about this in my book.When challenges came up specifically in my marriage, my fuse was so short.I could anger so quickly.
I wanted to be in control of so much.And so when all of these perceived challenges came up day to day, My mood would be dysregulated.I felt frustration.I shared my irritation.It's something that I've worked on so deeply.
But now, hey look, I'm not perfect.When challenges arise, I'm much more calm.Look, there are certainly situations where that isn't true. Just to be clear and frank.But overall, when challenges arise, I have my steadiness.I can take a few breaths.
I can have a false sense of perspective right in that second.Look at how serious is this really?My first let it be easy question, right?How serious is this really?What are my options?How can I let it be easy?
My three questions I come back to again and again.I've done pod episodes on those prior. But when a challenge comes up for you or someone else, how do you act?How do you behave?
You know, because it's really easy to go through life kind of doing all the spiritual work and all the self-help work.That's really, really easy to, you know, swan on with when life is great, right?
When the kids are good, when money's good, when the weather's good, when your presidential candidate wins, whatever it may be.It's easy to go through life with this Zen vibe when there are small or zero, few or zero challenges in your day to day.
But as human beings, we all have challenges.Even if we're challenge free for a period of time, it's going to change, right?Life is so dynamic.So how do you behave when there is a challenge?
It's very easy to be cool, calm, collected, steady, wise when things are good.When things are rough, how do you behave?How do you act? The second is when it comes to power.
I've seen people who have been so pleasant and cool and generous, and then they receive more and more power in certain positions, maybe at work, maybe in their own businesses as they hire and they have more influence.
And I notice them change a little bit, not all of them, but it's something that I observe.Maybe they behave with a bit more ego.Maybe they think that their opinion is more elevated than other people's opinions.
When there is a challenge, when there is a boost in power, we can learn a lot about ourselves and others.Where can you observe this?Maybe in your own life right now.Until tomorrow, my friends, so much love and ease.
