Establishing boundaries are an important part of "the process before the promise change". Are there any deep disappointments in your life that you may have lingering on and on and on? Do you feel you've prayed over the same matter over and over with very little change? Many of you have walked various seasons where there have been issues with health, marriage, family, and even the disappointment of daily living. I have been privy to most of those personal moments that makes you want to scream in the middle of the night or have you wrestling through tears trying to figure out what is next. How many times have you said to yourself? "My situation will change". This will not happen to me again. This is the last time I will walk down this road of uselessness. The process before the promise of a change is very important, and starts by setting boundaries. Boundaries are there not only for others but for yourself as well. Boundaries when established the right way will hinder you from waking up in the middle of the night screaming.
Here are some common guidelines that can be followed as a process before the promise of a change:
Understand why boundaries need to be healthy and the importance of setting them. The purpose of this is to help you build trust within yourself and to keep in control of your inner self.
Whenever setting boundaries, make sure to use common sense as you want to make sure that they are attainable.
Always reexamine or revisit these boundaries, as there will always be areas that need a good fixing.
Keep your boundaries as simple as possible as you may want to set different boundaries for other parts of your life.
Before you can make a change of promise you must decide on your goals, and how healthy and sustainable they will be.
When establishing a boundary, you have to take it slow. There is no time limit for working on yourself. It is an ongoing process. The key is to remain consistent and stick to your boundaries.
Healthy boundaries helps to promote growth towards a strong mental health. It is also the first step when making a promise regarding change.
