    I have a time budget as well. My problem is that I have individuals who don’t listen to my boundaries (in one ear out the other) and keep disrespecting my space and my decisions. As if I don’t know what is best for me. They are incredibly self serving and don’t care about me only themselves.

      karakol86, I hope you are able to enforce those boundaries. Get comfortable with the word no.

      Be more assertive

      Write "no" on a sign, tape it to a stick, and hold it up, point to it and shake your head.

    Another great video! Thank you!
    SYNOPSIS
    1. Strengthen and fortify your confidence (practice assertiveness).
    2. Set budgets and boundaries.
    3. Yes, with conditions. (create an opportunity for yes with some responsibility placed back on the person asking).
    4. Say "no" diplomatically and compassionately when you really mean "no". (i.e Thank you so much for thinking of me. I won't be able to attend...or...That sounds like a great project; it doesn't work for me right now.) You do not owe them an explanation.
    5. Don't be an opportunity stealer. (Don't rob people of their opportunity to work out their problems for themselves. aka don't enable others and prevent them from learning).

    I'm so happy that I found your channel. The messages you pass on are pure gold. Thank you!!
    I'm learning about not owing an explanation, unfortunately people in my community expect an explanation and demand it when not given, and replying with "it's a personal reason" or the like just enforces annoying probing 😟

    Thank you for sharing your knowledge. RE: budgets and boundaries. Rule #1; I do not loan or borrow, period. Rule #2; Genetics has absolutely nothing to do with my Bank Account. I live a financially responsible life and others, including family, should do the same. An act becomes a habit when it no longer requires thought.

      Hmm. As long as your life has no challenges, that sounds very comfortable. I think of John Donne's words, "No man is an island, entire of itself," about our interconnectedness. To help and be helped makes us a community. I hear Dr. Paul talking about how to preserve ourselves, not about how to be selfish. Maybe you didn't mean that to sound ungiving and selfishly uncaring?

    I think I enjoyed this more than the others. Why? I've been taken advantage of by wanting to pay forward how I myself have been helped. Someone latched onto me for their own opportunities. I was being manipulated but didn't realize it. There is a naive part of me that is too nice, and shuts down my senses when they would otherwise scream. No, they wouldn't do that to me... This video is great for business and personal. I became guarded more now because I became an instrument for someone's high ambition for themselves. It's ok to give a little help, but also very ok to be wary of how much you are limiting someone's personal growth because of it.

    Thank you for your video and always on spot Dr Paul, and i have a question for you Dr.
    How about the people who have the helper personality ( like me)? I always jump to help people and unfortunately when i need to or ask for the help from the same people or others,they are always selfish and helpless and after that i feel pain and sadness because i made them enjoy my help and take advantage of me. Lately I decided to do not help even tiny help and I couldn’t. Feel disappointed

      Ranya Muhammad, It sounds as though you are a kind person and enjoy helping others. Try some of the ideas in the video, especially setting boundaries and let me know how it works out.

      It is soooo difficult to change things when he have been going on for a long time, like your case. Follow through on some boundaries and hopefully you see a change.

      I know what you mean...my mom is the same way...she ALWAYS claims broke so I ALWAYS end up paying for things or "lending" her $ that I won't get back. SO...I learned from the best. NOW I claim broke too, & guess what? It's working out 😁

    I'm in my 50's and a man's anger terrifies me. My dad was a rageaholic well still is. Im pretty good at saying no but not so great with my parents. Ugh what a baby I am. Lol

    • @LiveOnPurposeTV
      @LiveOnPurposeTV  5 лет назад +2

      Not a baby, kimbers 123. Remember who you are now and try to redefine the relationship, I know it is difficult as those roles are the first we experience. You can find more positivity on a daily basis.

    • @evren0328

      People can’t take advantage of you unless you let them. Simple.

  • @georgeannepanos8132
    @georgeannepanos8132 5 лет назад +2

    And also, what do you call a person who has no problems asking for your
    help but when you ask for help (which I hate to do and almost never do, because of the impending disappointment)
    it doesn't come to fruition?? And, I have said almost all of my life - I am only as good as my last good deed....the
    minute I make a 'mistake', someone is always quick to criticize me and if I say NO to their request, forget it. What
    do you call those kind of peopel, Doc?

    • @LiveOnPurposeTV
      @LiveOnPurposeTV  5 лет назад +2

      Georgeanne Panos, we are all at various points on our paths in life and something we are disappointed by others. The idea of the video is how to not let other take advantage of you. Try watching this video to see if you can get more clarification. ruclips.net/video/3ZKfunvjwDg/видео.html Thank you for watching.
