Since you can remember, you have heard the word, “No,” Without knowing such a small word, when reinforced held such power. For, this word is even used by the smallest child.

          So many fail to recognize how powerful this one word can be. In life you have those who are followers ad those who are leaders. If  in life you are a follower you are setting yourself up for failure. In order to be a leader you must have beliefs, values, and morals. Those who seem to always follow others can only become what others allow them to become.

In life following others, with No Boundaries, within one’s self will only lead you off a cliff, where there will Never, be a soft landing. You have basically done this already. This in which, giving you, the reason for why you’re in this position.

          In fact, if you would had self boundaries this position you found yourself in could had been avoided, with one simple word..No. Start here, ask yourself how close to the edge will you go before saying No More!

          It’s time at this moment to take control of your life. You probably have a thousand questions going through your head. Slow-down! Take a deep Breath! Remember your starting point. Some times to visibly see your progress will help one to stay focused. To do this writes your steps.

II.    Remember Your Values- what your parents instilled in you as a child

III.         Set Personal Boundaries- how much you will take, how far you will go be for you say Enough

*Learn to lean on god.*

In finding yourself, having boundaries, now others will listen to you. Now, you are showing your confidence, faith, and self boundaries, in which you are determined to keep.

     Before now, others around you only have seen you as emotionally weak, as if they could treat you as their puppet to get by on in life. In which they have done by using your kindness and self esteem, using this to make them look better.

     Once you stand for yourself and your change in life has been taken you soon will learn who was a “friend” and who was a “Friend”. The real “Friend,” will be standing beside you, with only showing love, support, an encouragement you the Entire way. A s ,“friend”, those who had only negative influence in your life, as every other time, they will be discouraging and presenting temptations to you. The stronger you become and other see you are really trying, for you no longer will be their “puppet” they will fear your abilities in life you now have. The more you take charge of your own you must remain calm, keep faith, confident, and stay focused for their will be more temptations.
