How do you know when it's time to cut bait? Yesterday we talked about boundaries... and I'm also a fan of pushing your limits. So how do you reconcile those? It's really not as hard as it sounds When you start with personal responsibility! As an individual, you are only responsible for your decisions and outcomes, then there are modifiers. Parents take on responsibility for their kids, entrepreneurs take on some of the burdens for their employees and customers...but there's a limit. About 18 months ago, my adult son died from the effects of alcoholism. In spite of our best efforts, he still made the choices that led to his demise. You only have responsibility for others to the point of their freewill choice. You can't make the decision for them, that is where you have to let them beat the weight of their own burden. Focus on what you can control, make the decisions that are within your purvue, and do everything you can to let the rest go. Enjoy!
