Balance Your Boundaries
Choice, chance & change; the three C’s of effective communication. You must make a choice to take a chance or your communication with others will never change. Boundary setting is not about trying to change other people; it is about setting limits and deciding what you are willing to allow. It is your responsibility to communicate your boundary in a respectful manner that is firm and consistent, and be willing to enforce it when needed. Learn steps to cultivate healthy boundaries with others and stay on the “grow.” You can’t change people, but you can change your responses to them. May this process help you find your “conversation peace.”
