Congratulations – are you getting more comfortable with setting time boundaries for yourself?

Finding time when you need a longer span of time to accomplish your tasks can test the boundary-setting skills that you’re developing!

Suppose you have a certain routine that gives you an energetic start to your day. Your routine includes:

  • Getting up;
  • Exercising and/or meditating;
  • Taking a shower;
  • Dressing;
  • Making and eating breakfast; and
  • Leaving the house in time to get to work (or do whatever you have planned for the day).

That’s a great routine, and it takes a good chunk of morning time to move through it!

If you live alone, your challenge is different (and probably simpler) than if you live with others. Many of us need to ask for cooperation from others (spouse, children, friends, etc.) in order to accomplish this routine each day. So there really are two issues here – creating time boundaries and asking for help!

What’s a good way to address both issues?

What works for you? I’d love to hear your ideas!

Let’s explore time together …
