May- Planting Seeds & setting boundaries

According to My happiness project, In May I was to focus on self-care.  My goals were to get a holistic treatment each week, get to sleep earlier and to create a space for myself and to go there.  Just by default, it is already working out great.  In our new home, my bedroom is my retreat.  I bought a new bed and dresser with two end tables.  I purchased two because of feng shui I wanted to draw in the energy of a new happy and healthy relationship.  By creating this space for myself, I have never slept so well.   I am trying to get to sleep earlier or at least into bed earlier so I would say I am on track there.  I had a massage last week and I will be getting one Wednesday too.  I have been much more aware of the foods that make me feel good and walking the dog at least 3-4 days a week.  I want the 40's to be the best years of my life, and I think they look pretty good on me.  

In business, I took a couple of weeks off to let my new managers step in.  They are doing such a good job and it feels great to know that the daily tasks are getting taken care of, but also the foundation has become much stronger.  However I did find that I can not just step away, these are my businesses and I need to be present.  This month we are getting our computer program up and running and laying out the details according to my vision.  The new mission statement has been written and we have decided to re brand the holistic center which is needed.  

Probably the biggest advance for me has been setting boundaries.  To be honest, this was not easy for me.  I am a little bit of a push over until I am not anymore and this is where the problem lies as when I draw the line there is nothing tactful about it.  I am working on setting compassionate boundaries as Daphne had pointed out because most of the time I just blurt it out, due to built up emotions.  To be unclear is to be unkind, is the quote I have in my office.
