Reflection
Boundaries
Boundaries are not a way to control people; they are a way to control your own exposure to things that don't serve you.
— Nedra Glover Tawwab
सीमाएँ लोगों को नियंत्रित करने का तरीका नहीं हैं; वे उन चीज़ों के प्रति अपने जोखिम (exposure) को नियंत्रित करने का एक तरीका हैं जो आपके काम नहीं आतीं।
— नेद्रा ग्लोवर तवाब

Why this matters:

यह क्यों मायने रखता है:
हम दूसरों को नहीं बदल सकते, लेकिन हम यह बदल सकते हैं कि हम थका देने वाली स्थितियों में खुद को कितना देते हैं। सीमाएँ भावनात्मक आत्म-नियमन (self-regulation) का प्राथमिक उपकरण हैं।
