Boundaries vs Rules vs Agreements
- Boundaries protect your behavior and values but are often confused with rules or agreements.
- A boundary is something you enforce on yourself, not something others must follow.
Coaching Session Boundary Example
- Jase shared enforcing a 50-minute coaching session boundary by ending it if client goes over.
- He realized not enforcing it ruins his day and loses the boundary's protective power.
Distinguish Boundaries From Rules
- Test if rules are really boundaries by asking: would you personally enforce it by changing your behavior?
- Phrase boundaries focusing on your actions, not demands on others.
