??What Do You Tolerate???

As we navigate the complexities of both life and leadership, it's essential to reflect on a critical question: What do you tolerate??

For what you tolerate teaches people how to treat you.??

The "Being Nice" Dilemma??

Being “nice” has undoubtedly helped you build relationships and advance in both your life and career. However, the behaviors associated with being overly accommodating may not convey the respect and boundaries necessary for effective leadership. To reach your full potential, it's crucial to reassess these patterns.??

Shifting Boundaries with Life and Leadership Changes??

Any changes in relationships, roles or leadership positions require a reassessment of boundaries and responsibilities. This process involves clear communication about who does what and where the limits lie. While it's important to be respectful and considerate, it's equally important to assert yourself when your boundaries are being violated.????

The Principle of Tolerance?

The principle to keep in mind is simple: What you tolerate teaches people how to treat you. If you consistently allow boundary violations without addressing them, you are implicitly teaching others that such behavior is acceptable. Over time, this can erode your authority and respect within your relationships and team.?

Addressing Issues in the Moment??

Handling boundary violations as they occur prevents small issues from escalating into significant conflicts. By addressing these matters promptly and calmly, you can resolve them effectively and maintain a healthy work environment.?

Remember, speaking up for yourself isn't about being rude or a jerk; it's about maintaining the respect and boundaries that are essential for effective leadership. Take care, assert your boundaries, and lead with confidence.??

Together, let’s lead strong and build better humans. The best is yet to come! ????
