Why Should You Set Boundaries?
from RiseUp - Live Joy Your Way Hosted by Kamini Wood
When we set boundaries, a side effect or a thought that can pop into our heads could be that we’re giving up or walking away from something important, but that couldn’t be further from the truth! When you set boundaries, you’re not forcing someone to ‘stop’ or you’re not ‘giving up’ and resigning, you’re reinforcing what you will or will not tolerate. If that person refuses to listen, then that’s when you know what that person really thinks about you and your needs! It is completely okay to walk away from something that doesn’t serve you or respects your boundaries. Walking away from something toxic is not a sign of weakness! You shouldn’t have to ‘push through’ the pain in order to feel worthy, loveable, or whole. When people disrespect your boundaries, it says everything about them and not you. If you’ve ever felt selfish for having boundaries, take a moment to reframe and realign yourself. It’s actually self-ful to have boundaries and standards to how you want others to treat you. If something doesn’t work for you anymore, there is no reason why you shouldn’t be able to back out and walk away from it. It is okay to change your mind or even say no when things don’t feel right for you. Continue Your Growth Journey: Kaminiwood.com
