Setting Personal Boundaries

Everyday we meet people who try to impose their will upon us, forcing us to function in the way they want.

You have the right to self-respect. You are not a pushover.

Draw the line.

Yes, draw the line when you want to be respected.

Draw the line when you know your own worth.

Draw the line when you want to have power.

Draw the line so that people do not take advantage of you.

Draw the line because you now have a clear idea of what to put up with. And what you won't allow to affect you.

Draw the line because someone will always try to use you unwisely.

Draw the line because you don't have to be scared of what people will do to you.

Draw the line and stand up for yourself because you are a mature person by now.

Draw the line and be ready to say: "No, I won't put up with this behavior."

Personal boundary setting helps us define our territory. Likewise, when we want to avoid building up resentment, we have to communicate in a direct manner on what is acceptable and not.

May you understand that it is your personal responsibility to choose how others will treat you.
