7 Boundaries Smart Professionals Set ✨

Remember when "leaving work at work" was actually possible?

Now, it follows you home.

To dinner.

To bed.

Even on vacation.

These small boundary breaks don’t just drain your time.

They erode your focus, your presence - and your sense of control.

If you're tired of work creeping into every corner of your life, you're not alone.

That's why I’m sharing 7 boundary-setting rules below that high-achievers like you can start using today - to protect your peace and still deliver top-tier results.

✨ I N S P I R E

"You teach people how to treat you by what you allow, what you stop, and what you reinforce." - Tony Gaskins

✨ T H R I V E

"Always on" isn't commitment.

It's slow-motion burnout.

These 7 new rules help you set clear boundaries (without creating tension):

❌ Old Rule: Be available 24/7 - and apologize for limits

✅ New Rule: Set clear communication boundaries upfront.

↳ Set auto-responses for non-working hours.

↳ Communicate clear working hours upfront.

↳ Schedule buffer time for deep work or breaks.

❌ Old Rule: Take every meeting

✅ New Rule: Question every invitation.

↳ Ask, "What's the desired outcome?"

↳ Suggest alternatives to meetings

↳ Like Loom (my favorite!)

❌ Old Rule: Power through

✅ New Rule: Schedule rest like meetings.

↳ Buffer 5-10 min breaks between calls.

↳ Take a real lunch away from your desk.

↳ End your workday at a set time.

❌ Old Rule: Reply immediately

✅ New Rule: Respond strategically.

↳ Batch emails 3x daily.

↳ Use templates for common requests.

↳ Schedule emails only for business hours.

❌ Old Rule: Say yes to prove worth

✅ New Rule: Say no to protect impact.

↳ Review priorities before committing.

↳ Ask, "What needs to drop for this?"

↳ Say, "Let me check and circle back."

❌ Old Rule: Push through overwhelm

✅ New Rule: Listen to overwhelm.

↳ Do weekly energy audits.

↳ Schedule key tasks during peak energy hours.

↳ Get specific about what's causing overwhelm.

❌ Old Rule: Be everything to everyone

✅ New Rule: Be significant to a few.

↳ Nurture your most vital relationships.

↳ Delegate tasks others can do 80% as well.

↳ Focus on high-impact activities.

The boundary isn’t the problem.

The lack of one is ✨

Have a beautiful week friends,
