What You’ll Learn About Boundaries and Mental Strength

Some people are passive in their relationships. They allow others to treat them any way they want. Consequently, they often feel used and frustrated when people don’t show them respect. This interferes with developing healthy relationships.

Other people are aggressive. They get upset when others don’tmeet their expectations, yet they don’t communicate those expectations ahead of time. Their behavior often means they aren’t well-liked, and they struggle to maintain close relationships.

People who have good boundaries set the rules and communicate these rules to others. When people fail to meet those expectations, they address it. This helps them establish the healthiest relationships because everyone knows one another’s expectations.

People who have healthy boundaries feel more in control. While they aren’t trying to control other people, they know they can control how they respond to others. Having a healthy sense of control and healthy relationships with others is key to being mentally strong.

The Difference Between Mental Strength and Mental Health

Nedra Glover TawwabA lot of boundaries that we’re missing are the boundaries that we need with ourselves, around how we operate in our relationships with other people, and how we operate in our relationship with ourselves.
