Welcome to Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore.
0:10
Do you want to know something funny? That makes me laugh when I think about it.
0:15
It's the lengths that we will go to to avoid challenges, to avoid struggles,
0:21
to avoid discomfort, to avoid something going perceived as wrong.
0:26
We will do anything sometimes to avoid what we understand to be stressed,
0:32
suffering, struggle, challenge, thinking that that is the way to access peace.
0:39
If that's you, if you're feeling that way right now,
0:42
maybe you're hoping something doesn't happen or you're trying to manipulate
0:45
or control the situation so that you won't be challenged or stressed,
0:53
Hasn't the peace that you've attained in your life over time?
0:59
Hasn't that really only come from earlier challenges that you faced?
1:09
Earlier challenges, struggles, stressful situations that you dealt with and survived?
1:17
Is it a paradoxical that we avoid things that bring us peace?
1:21
Because the temporary nature of them scares us.
1:24
But we know once we've dealt with a job loss, once we've dealt with grief,
1:29
once we've dealt with being in a very unfamiliar situation,
1:33
once we've dealt with x, y, z, phil in the blanks, you know your own personal history.
1:38
Those experiences are what made you strong,
1:42
what gave you self-trust, which is the foundation of inner peace.
1:49
Trusting, you know what? I got it.
1:51
I'm going to be okay.
1:53
I figure things out.
1:55
Look at the past as proof, as evidence of this.
2:02
Avoiding challenges might seem safe in the short term.
2:06
But number one, it doesn't work.
2:08
But is it ever worked for you long term?
2:11
And can you, even when you don't feel like it, even when it scares you,
2:17
even if you're in the thick of something right now,
2:20
can you just look to your history for data, for proof,
2:27
that what you're going through now will only forge you forward,
2:32
will only be a blessing and retrospect.
2:36
This, my friend, is trust.
2:39
And if you're anything like me, trusting yourself
2:42
and trusting the greater picture is the only way to live.
2:47
That piece you have now, that's what you have now.
2:50
It wasn't from avoiding challenges.
2:52
It was facing them and being okay.
2:58
Until tomorrow, my friends.
3:01
So much love and ease.
