Abby: “I don’t love boundaries”
Coleman: “I love boundaries”
For years Abby and I did boundaries poorly. It was all about controlling and managing other people’s behavior. I feel exhausted just thinking about it now.
Then we learned how to do boundaries in a way that required only one thing: how to manage and control ourselves.
This simple shift changed our experience of boundaries. All of a sudden, boundaries actually worked and were fully within our control.
Other people could do whatever they wanted to do and we knew exactly what we were going to do in certain situations and relationships to stay true to our boundaries.
Boundaries I think, are one of the most underutilized life tools to improve your relationships and schedule.
