Things I learned about personal boundaries from cattle

Boundaries are helpful for healthy relationships and safe cattle farming. Be sure to establish, communicate, and maintain your boundaries, so they achieve their intended objective. Remember, if your boundaries are too strong, you will eventually keep everyone out. The goal of boundaries isn’t to keep people out; it is to maintain health and mutually beneficial relationships. #personalboundaries #healthrelationships #farmlife #personalleadership

Dating as a series of healthy experiments not as wins and loses

In a perfect world, you wouldn’t need to run any kind of experiments. It would be a world without regret. You would already know everything necessary to have an amazing lasting relationship. But the world isn’t perfect. Intentional experiments are how you learn to thrive in romantic relationships while enjoying the journey. #relationships #datingexperiments #healthyrelationships

Why we don’t walk around our house with earbuds in, and why you shouldn’t either.

We all choose to mute things. How might choosing to mute the outside world be harming your relationships and why you should care about it. #healthyrelationships #parenting #communication #effectiveliving

Addressing difficult subjects in your relationships

The goal of sharing truth or engaging in conflict with someone in your personal community should be to improve the relationship and encourage the other person to consider if a change is best for them and your relationship.

This type of honest dialogue, when done appropriately, creates deep connection. Deep connection creates long term mutually beneficial relationships capable of withstanding difficulty.

Follow this model to help you improve the quality of your interactions over subjects that might cause conflict.

Set boundaries to help others achieve their best

Setting healthy boundaries leads to better outcomes. Boundaries are required for you to be sustainably generous and a great leader. Great news is you control your ability to create boundaries. #boundaries #mentoring #leading #successful #generosity
