Set Better Boundaries
Do you feel it too? … That nagging need to evolve, improve, and be challenged? That constant desire to be somewhere else, and be some one else. Most of us experience this. But when’s the last time you stopped to get clear about what your ideal life would look like NOW?
For example, ask yourself:
- How would I like to spend my time?
- Who do I want to spend my time with?
- What tasks would I complete?
- Who would I help?
Clients work with me to get clear on questions like this, and to get guidance and accountability to live more fulfilled lives. I have advised hundreds of clients from all over the world, and they each long to discover their passions and purpose. Most clients admit that what holds them back is:
- Lack of confidence
- Self-doubt, and
- Fear
Just to name a few. At the root of what keeps us stuck, is the agonizing feeling of inadequacy – that we’ll never be good enough. We want to be better partners, parents and employees… but we must be better to ourselves first!
Part of the journey toward a more balanced life, will involve evaluating your current boundaries, and setting new ones. In this video, I recommend a book that will help you start the process, called: “Boundaries - When to say Yes How to say No, to take Control of Your Life,” by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.
Watch video below to learn the authors’ top five tips to find the freedom that’s necessary to take control of your life. Then consider how YOU can set appropriate and proactive boundaries with your own:
- Time
- Energy
- Talents
- Values
- Feelings
- Behavior
