3 Keys to Communicate Your Boundaries

3 Keys to Communicate Boundaries

Imagine having a secret skill that could transform your life, a skill like the heroes in Anime Ossan Newbie. A skill so powerful, yet it goes unused because it's a secret. That's what happens when you have boundaries but don't know how to communicate them. They're a secret skill that helps no one, especially not you.

At Thriving Man, our mission is to help you conquer your everyday chaos and build a thriving life. In this video, we'll talk about the three keys to communicating boundaries. These keys aren't just for conflict; they're for creating a successful life in every area.

Understand Your Boundaries

The first key is simple: you can’t communicate your boundaries if you don’t understand them yourself. In this video, we discuss how to know your "why" behind your boundaries, which helps you stay strong and hold to what is important.

• Have a "Why": Knowing your personal convictions behind a boundary isn’t about justifying it to others. It’s about building a strong foundation so you can communicate it with confidence.

Choose the Right Moment

The right moment is key when communicating boundaries. Don't wait until the middle of a fight to set a boundary. We’ll show you why it's better to set them early and manage them over time. We’ll also discuss how making up a boundary on the spot can hurt your credibility and relationships.

• Don't Use Boundaries to Manipulate: Boundaries are for clarity and protection, not for avoiding difficult situations or manipulating people. When you manipulate, you lose trust and damage relationships.

Stay Consistent

This is the bedrock of communicating boundaries. If you tell one person something and act differently with another, you will confuse people and damage your reputation. Consistency is the key to all your relationships. We’ll discuss how to stay calm, own your boundaries, and not let other people’s reactions make you change them.

• Be Consistent, Be Trusted: People watch to see if you uphold your boundaries with everyone. Upholding your boundaries consistently shows others what you value and builds trust.

Remember, boundaries don't work unless you communicate them. In this video, you'll learn how to understand your boundaries, choose the right moment to share them, and stay consistent.
