Now, I get it.

Setting and standing by your boundaries is like building a fortress around yourself, protecting your peace and sanity from unwanted intruders. It’s putting up a sign that says, “Do not disturb unless you come bearing snacks and good vibes.” Boundaries are your invisible force field, bouncer, and line in the sand that says, “This far, no further.”

Why can’t I seem to stick to them?

Setting boundaries can be tough. It’s like trying to build a brick wall with marshmallows – it’s a sticky situation, and not everyone is going to respect the boundaries you’ve put in place. But, that’s where standing by your boundaries comes in. It’s about holding your ground, standing tall, and saying, “No, you shall not pass.”

Think of it this way:

Your boundaries are like your personal space bubble. You wouldn’t let just anyone come into your bubble and start poking around, would you?

No way!

You’d be like, “Back off, buddy! This bubble is for VIPs only.”

So why should you let people trample all over your emotional and mental boundaries?

Trust me, I get it, easier said than done…

One important thing to remember is that setting boundaries is about knowing your worth and standing up for yourself. It’s about saying, “I deserve to be treated with respect, and if you can’t respect that, then you can see yourself out.”

There’s the door; don’t let it hit you on the way out.

It’s about putting yourself first because, let’s face it – if you don’t care for yourself, who will?

Standing by your boundaries is also about being firm but fair. It’s about being assertive without being aggressive. It’s about saying what you mean and meaning what you say.

It’s about being a badass who knows their worth and isn’t afraid to defend it.

So, don’t be afraid to push back the next time someone tries to push your boundaries.

Stand tall,

Stand strong,

Stand by your boundaries.

Because your boundaries protect you from the world’s chaos, they protect your peace from the crazies looking to destroy it, and nobody has time for that.
