Tips that can help you to set Boundaries
What is a Boundary?
A boundary is a space that separates one thing from another.
Boundaries are of many types. They can be physical, as in fences and walls; they can be emotional, as in the line between love and hate; they can be spiritual, as in the line between life and death.
It’s always important to set boundaries with your friends, family and coworkers. Boundaries help you stay healthy and feel good about yourself. And it’s equally important to know when to stand your ground and when to back down.
You Have the Power to Set All of Your Limits
The first step to achieving a goal is to set a limit on what you can do. For example, if you want to lose weight, you might set your limit as losing 1 pound per week. You may then choose to break up the overall goal into smaller limits by setting goals for each week and each day.
Limit setting is an important part of any goal because it helps you stay motivated and focused on the task at hand. It also helps you avoid feeling overwhelmed with what needs to be done in order to achieve your goal.
