Good fences make good neighbours.
A classic saying that extends into the metaphysical. Whether one is creating a mental, verbal or energetic boundary, it's good to create a breathing space that is personal exclusively to you. No one likes to be in a crowded situation. Uncalled for clutter, noise, drama, and external energies interfere with our well being. No one wants it and no one asked for it but we live with people in this vast and wonderful world and with that comes overlap.
We are all unique, having our own values, goals and destiny. As we interact with others we can disagree and not 100% align with. Being clear with ourselves and exercising our disciplines we can be sure we are not intruding in other people's spaces. While we can take personal responsibility, we cannot for others. They are responsible for themselves. If they are not in check with their thoughts, actions and disciplines we witness inappropriate behaviours such as projection, taker spirit, co-dependency, and victimhood.
Creating boundaries is one of the most important exercises one can do for themselves. Your energetic personal space sets a clear message to external energetics (both conscious and unconscious) attempting to enter your space without permission. This level of respect for both yourself and others sets the standard of how you should proceed with your day to day (both work and personal activities). It does not matter if you're a leader or not. Maintaining a personal space between you and the outside world is paramount. It's a communication stating your intent as your stand in your authority.
You are a powerful being. Never forget that.
The best boundary is an energetic space with 5D energy from your Heart Core Essence. An exercise Carla Fox taught me in her workshop. An extremely valuable lesson. Working with your higher self and higher frequencies can set a clear command in your environment that "one shall not pass". It's extremely useful to create peace and balance in situations at your home and work environment. Interferences and negatives do not have a chance against the higher frequencies.
Setting boundaries is a must if one is clear about their direction and goals. To not do so only muddies and blurs your path. Not everyone is on the same trajectory or road. People we meet in this life can come and go. When an undesirable comes your way, a clear boundary removes this.
Ultimately you're defining your timeline.
You are the master, you are the captain.
Own it.
Along the way show compassion and shine a light but never allow yourself to be derailed. In his book "The Compound Effect", Darren Hardy explains how to create a laser visioned focus to create results when the goal is taking too long. Boundaries are very much in line with what Darren is describing. The boundary, the mental bubble, the energetic space, they all create a "container" aiding to your focus. When we draw our attention towards something and focus on it, it leads to a desired outcome (with the right principals and modalities applied). Our energy contributes towards it, supporting it.
Define Your Boundaries, Define Your Timeline.
