Set Your Boundaries

altruism

Do you find yourself saying ‘yes’ to everything that people ask you to do? Does this lead to you having little time to take care of yourself and the things that are important? It’s time to set some boundaries and practice being assertive. If someone continually asks you for favours that chew up a lot of your time, simply explain that lately you’ve been really busy and are struggling to stay on top of everything and this time, no, you won’t be able to help. Sometimes people get into a habit of asking certain people for things, without really evaluating the effect it has on them. Remind them of it, and they will slowly come to appreciate your time and boundaries.
