Boundaries

Are you feeling used?

Are people driving you crazy?

Do you feel like your life is out of control?

Are you putting too much effort into your relationship & getting less & less?

Are you working harder and getting paid less?

Do people run over you time and time again?

Then you have a problem with boundaries. Then you are giving up too much of yourself. It’s time to take charge of your life.

Ask yourself these questions and see if you have problems with boundaries.

  1. Do you have difficulty knowing what you want or making up your mind?
  2. Do you tend to get involved with people who end up taking advantage of you?
  3. Is it hard for you to say NO?
  4. Is it important that you please others and have their approval?
  5. Do you stay in relationships or situations long after you know you know you should get out?
  6. Do you feel you don’t deserve better than what you are getting?
  7. Do you have a hard time asking for what you want or need?
  8. If someone is upset, do you feel it is your responsibility to fix it?
  9. Do you find yourself getting in the middle other peoples problems?
  10. Do you feel overwhelmed and drained by the relationships or situations you are in?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, you will need to strengthen your personal boundary system. Listen for more tips on what you need to know.

Let me ask you a simple question that has a profound impact on you.

WHO ARE YOU LISTENING TO?

Because who you listen to will influence what you think, how you feel and what you do. So it is easy to get confused about yourself and others.

But if you understand boundaries,
you will eliminate much of the confusion you feel.

  • Because Boundaries help you set appropriate limits.
  • Because boundaries will help you know who you can trust and who you can’t.
  • Because Boundaries define what you will and won’t allow.
  • Because without boundaries, you become a willing victim and an easy target.

It is important to know that you have certain Rights.

Your Boundary Bill of Rights

  1. You have the Right to be treated with respect.
  2. You have the Right to say NO without feeling guilty.
  3. You have the Right to make a mistake.
  4. You have a Right to ask for what you want and need.
  5. You have the Right to express your feelings and opinions.
  6. You have the Right to change your mind.
  7. You have the Right to feel good about yourself no matter what others
    say
  8. You have the Right to act in your own best interest as long as you don’t
    violate others in the process.
