Set boundaries when needed from "summary" of Don't Panic by Neil Gaiman
Boundaries are a necessary part of life. They are the lines we draw to protect ourselves from harm, whether physical or emotional. Without boundaries, we can easily find ourselves overwhelmed and stretched too thin. It is important to recognize when boundaries need to be set and to do so without hesitation. Setting boundaries is not a sign of weakness, but rather a sign of self-respect. It shows that we value ourselves enough to protect our own well-being. By setting boundaries, we communicate to others how we expect to be treated and what we will and will not tolerate. Sometimes setting boundaries can be difficult, especially if we fear conflict or upsetting others. However, it is essential to remember that it is okay to prioritize our own needs and feelings. It is not selfish to set boundaries; it is necessary for our own mental and emotional health. Boundaries can come in many forms – saying no to a request that we cannot fulfill, speaking up when someone crosses a line, or simply taking time for ourselves when needed. Whatever form they take, boundaries are essential for maintaining healthy relationships and personal well-being. In the end, setting boundaries is an act of self-care. It is about valuing ourselves enough to protect our own happiness and peace of mind. So, when the time comes, do not hesitate to set boundaries when needed. Your well-being is worth it.
