It’s interesting, I often get the same message over and over again (I told my spiritual team to just keep telling me until I got it!) and today I have received this message from 7 (yes, seven!) different sources. The funny thing is that I don’t feel any breaches in my boundaries at all. So I guess that this is not about me – I guess it’s about you.
This is something worth remembering – as a coach I regularly read something or hear something or have a conversation that then turns out to be really useful to a client a couple of days later. At first I found this odd, now it just makes me laugh. This phenomena constantly reminds me that it’s not just about receiving insights, but also about being a channel for those insights so others can benefit too.
Anyway, back to the point of this blog post – boundaries. Imagine that your life is a garden, surrounded by flower beds – are people trampling all over your flower beds, encroaching into your space, ‘dissing’ you? If so, instead of feeling cross with them, tend to your boundaries, create a sign that says ‘do not walk on the grass’! Or do whatever you need to do to ensure that your boundaries are intact.
Instead of expecting others to guess where the boundaries are, make them clear. Teach others how to treat you – with respect and love. Do this by having strong boundaries. You don’t have to fortress up, but you do need to be clear and strong. A little bit of boundary tending now will save you having to clear up a mess in your garden later!
