Too often we allow people's attitudes and demands to control our emotions. We allow this by constantly meeting their demands or solving their problems. This becomes very draining and steals our gift of peace and joy. Eventually we will find ourselves resenting those people because of failure to set boundaries.
To solve this problem and to keep our peace and joy, we need to set healthy boundaries. It's okay to say NO! It's okay to enjoy time with ourself! And, we shouldn't worry what other's think of us when we have to say NO to maintain our peace and joy. If they have a problem with our NO, then they are being selfish. We are just as important as they are! Remember that!
Be Confident. Authentic. Purposeful.
