Clarity of boundaries

Clarity of boundaries is the awareness of what is acceptable, what we do not want to exceed and how we communicate it in action.

Definition

Boundaries are only useful when they are recognized, communicated and maintainable. Clear boundaries are not about being tough on people, but about protecting values, energy, time and security. The less clear the boundary, the more guesswork, tension and subsequent frustration.

Practice and life

Choose one situation in which you feel tense and complete the sentence: "My boundary is..." and then "I will communicate it through..."

Common misunderstanding

It is a mistake to expect others to know your boundaries. It is also a mistake to place the border only during the explosion, when it has not been named before.
