Be True, Be Transparent, Be Me
Priyadarshini Thillainathan recently shared a post on LinkedIn that struck a chord with me, resonating with a quote from Lead Change Heart Way: “The path to authentic happiness requires healthy boundaries and the courage to exercise willpower.”
WHY Boundaries Matter
When we lack boundaries, we risk overextending ourselves, leading to burnout and a loss of connection to our true values. Authentic happiness requires that we honor our worth and set limits that align with our well-being. By establishing healthy boundaries, we create space for clarity, energy, and genuine joy.
WHAT Boundaries Look Like
Small acts of willpower—like saying “no” to things that don’t serve us—help spark clarity and strength. Boundaries let us focus on what matters most, allowing us to show up fully and authentically in line with our values. Each time we honour our values, we invite more happiness into our lives, creating the energy to give more.
HOW to Start Setting Boundaries
- Identify your values: Reflect on what truly matters to you. Set boundaries that support your core values and prioritize your well-being.
- Practice small acts of willpower: Start with one small boundary that aligns with your values. Notice how each “no” brings a sense of strength and clarity.
- Acknowledge your worth: Remind yourself that you’re worthy of joy and balance, and that saying “no” can often be the most generous choice.
Final Thoughts
There was a time when I felt drained and overcommitted, believing that saying “no” was selfish. Setting boundaries felt like letting people down. But over time, I learned that boundaries are essential to truly showing up—not just for myself but for others too.
Living with boundaries is an ongoing journey, but each step helps us grow and lead from a place of abundance. Do you believe in your worth beyond just saying “yes”?
