Boundaries? What does that word mean to you? To me, boundaries set the tone for how you will be treated. You can have boundaries in your personal life, as well as even in the workplace. No boundaries will result in not having a positive and healthy life; it’ll lead to you putting up with things that you didn’t intend to.
Why is it important to have boundaries?:
-SELF CARE!!!!
It’s really as simple as the above answer. With the proper healthy boundaries you’re simply taking care of yourself. You are giving yourself permission to use the word “NO” when needed. As well as using the word unapologetically. We are not all comfortable in the same situations/settings; it’s up to you to make sure you’re not in any uncomfortable situations.
When you are setting boundaries, it’s important to let someone know when they over step their boundaries with you; to ensure it doesn’t happen again.
What will happen if you don’t have boundaries?:
-lead to you feeling intruded and taken advantage of
-lead to hurt, resentment, burnout, and anger
-lead to depression
No boundaries will have you eventually unhappy and in a bad head space. This is giving others the opportunity to tell you how to think, feel, and act. This means you need to make setting boundaries a priority; boundaries mean you have self-respect for yourself.
When setting boundaries:
-Realize how certain things/people make you feel
-Be direct
-Give yourself permission
-Make self-care a priority
You guys can do this and once the boundaries are set; I promise you won’t regret it. REMEMBER: ANYBODY WHO TRULY WANTS TO BE IN YOUR LIFE WILL RESPECT YOUR BOUNDARIES! DEMI IS ROOTING FOR YOU ALWAYS! Until Next Time!
