HOW HAVE YOUR BOUNDARIES BEEN PUSHED THIS YEAR?

04 Dec HOW HAVE YOUR BOUNDARIES BEEN PUSHED THIS YEAR?

THIS IS CALLED TRANSCENDENCE. Transcendence is a big word that has several connotations and it triggers different thoughts in my mind. The actual definition is, “being beyond the limits of a possible experience and knowledge.” Building upon the definition, there is no doubt that 2020 has been transcendent in all of our lives.

HAVING BOUNDARIES CAN EVENTUALLY GIVE US A SENSE OF SAFETY AND SECURITY

Pushing boundaries may make us feel uncomfortable because that involves stretching ourselves out of our safe/secure and comfort/known zone. Now, the challenge is figuring out how we can keep this game-changer way of living and continue to push our boundaries intentionally, making us feel safe and secure, along with transforming ourselves on a continuous basis.

I would like to invite you to think about these questions that may help shed light and encourage you to make pushing your boundaries and transcending with intention a part of your life.

• How did you cope with COVID?
• Are you still angry about the changes made?
• What boundaries were expanded? How did you feel about the situation?
  Was it worth it?
• What were your most significant or relevant lessons learned?
  Your most valuable reward?
• What was one of the changes made you made and want to keep for good?

Answering these questions may give you a better idea of how to continue the momentum with more awareness and intention to make it sustainable in the long run.  Download the Monarch Paper to learn more about Transcendence and how pushing your boundaries can help you transform as a leader during challenging times.
