BOUNDARIES – When to say yes, How to say no to take control of your life!’ by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.

Most people who know me know that I am an avid reader. A follower contacted me and asked me if I could recommend a book that had a major impact on my life! YES! I read it 15 years ago (and it is one of my most inspirational ones to refer to friends, colleagues, and clients) – ‘Boundaries – When to say yes, How to say no to take control of your life!’ by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend.  

This book provided me with powerful “AHA” shock waves! It resonated with me at a time when I needed to accept that my life had gone off the rails and I needed to refocus, to take better care of myself, and to be more discerning with whom I let into my life.  

Life throws us curve balls and we ask ourselves when we are stuck, and can’t move forward, “Why is this happening to me? Why is this person in my life?!’’  This book explains how we project outward (like a mirror) to the universe what we desire most in order to be happy! 

However, in reality, we are sent people and find ourselves in situations that test our boundaries which we need in order to grow!  It’s paramount to have healthy boundaries. Saying “No!” at the right time is ok, and if for the right reasons.  

Is there a book that gave you an “AHA” moment? Please share!
