COT

Boundaries: I don’t know enough about them to even structure a good COT, but I do know we need them dearly. This was just an encouragement to find where you need yours. See other parts of your life that seem in balance and figure out what you value their that makes you take the effort of saying no to unbalancing things. Seek the help of older and wiser men around you, too.  Seasons change and so too will your balance need to change, so get int he practice of finding your center everyday and asking yourself what balance looks like that day – then flexing throughout the day to let it happen.
