What do boundaries look like?

When we talk about boundaries, what are we really talking about? It's one thing to say "create boundaries," but what does that actually mean? What do boundaries look like?

Examples of core boundaries include:

• It is not my job to fix others

• It is OK if others get angry

• It is OK to say "No."

• It is not my job to take responsibility for others

• I don't have to anticipate the needs of others

• It is my job to make myself happy

• Nobody has to agree with me

• I have a right to my own feelings

• I am enough
