Address boundary violations by changing your own behavioral…

Address boundary violations by changing your own behavioral pattern in the relationship dance rather than demanding the other person change first.

Why This Is a Principle

Derives from behavior as a function of person and environment (Behavior is a function of both the person…) and system behavior arising from structure (The behavior of a system arises from its structure…). Prescribes changing your own step in the relational pattern as the actionable intervention point.

Relational boundaries define what you will and will not accept in your relationships. They are the operational expression of your values in interpersonal contexts — the point where your internal commitments become visible to others through what you tolerate, what you refuse, and what you require.
