Setting Strong Boundaries
This week I’ve been aware of how often people have weak boundaries, or really no boundaries at all.
Do you say “yes” to requests others make of you when you would really rather decline? (Are you “shoulding” on yourself?)
Do you make decisions based on how others will feel, neglecting your own feelings?
Do you give the feelings/schedules/desires of others priority over your own?
Make the decision to take responsibility for your boundaries.
When our boundaries are weak, we often are tempted to blame others for the things we are tolerating. The things we tolerate drain our energy and create general unhappiness.
