If you want to live your own life and not someone else's, if you want your needs to be met and relationships with people to develop, you must learn to set boundaries.
Many people ignore boundaries for fear that others will stop loving and accepting us if we draw a line. We are terribly afraid of angering or upsetting others. We are afraid that we will be abandoned and we will be left alone. We believe that taking care of ourselves, we act as selfish. That is why we sacrifice ourselves, maintaining the "bad world": a false sense of harmony. This book is about the fact that boundaries do not always lead to conflict.
It is about the fact that you have the right to boundaries regardless of what others want from you, and these boundaries can lie anywhere. You can compromise, you can negotiate, but you must not give up the most important principles.
For those who are accustomed to please, accustomed to the role of savior, benefactor and solver of other people's problems, the very idea of putting yourself first seems radical. But truth, close trusting relationships, freedom - all this will be revealed to you only when you put your desires in the first place, discarding fears and doubts. After reading this book, you will learn how to do it.
