Setting your boundaries expands your possibilities.
Setting your boundaries is a skill that is vital, not only to your time management success but for living your life to its fullest.
It empowers you to shape your moments and sharpen your focus.
Boundaries delineate what you let in and what you keep out.
When you need to really buckle down and get things done, setting your boundaries lets you minimize distractions (what gets in) and hone in on your goal.
Setting Your Boundaries: You Need Them to Thrive
But does boundary-setting sound like a lot of work? And does a life without boundaries have a nice ring to it for you? I can see how you might think a boundary-less life would be unfettered and expansive. You’d expect your creativity to really take off, with the sky being the only limit.
But let’s step back and think about it. What would life really be like without those guardrails?
Well, picture yourself writing a blog post or meditating in the midst of a 3-year-old’s birthday party. Or imagine trying to drink water using a sieve.
Can you see how boundaries and boundary-setting are vital to our productivity, our peace of mind, and, ultimately, our survival?
YOU are the key.
When it comes to setting and maintaining boundaries the biggest hurdles to overcome are never external. No, for each of us, the biggest challenges come from inside.
We each hold the power and the key to our own boundary-setting success. Our choices and our level of follow-through are the decisive factors.
Whether it’s a project you need to complete or a self-care activity that you tend to neglect, your boundary-setting skills can move you from wherever you are today to where you’d like to be.
