rephrased:

I will set my own personal boundaries.
I will do whatever it takes to enforce those boundaries.
I will do whatever it takes to protect my emotional well being.
I will keep out and or let go those who are not healthy and who would damage my soul, self and mind.
I will take time to think before I speak.
I will tell someone their behavior is not acceptable to me.
I will decide what behavior is and is not acceptable.
I will step back from a situation in order to evaluate my feels, however long that takes.
I will set stricter boundaries when I need and stick to them.
I will ask for space when I need it.
I will take responsibility for the way I allow others to treat me.
I will cut someone completely out of my life if I feel they don't respect my boundaries.
I will not believe everything I'm told.
I will know what I want and not settle for less.
I will let your problems, your dysfunction be yours.
I will not be able to help you when you choose not to help yourself.
I will not be able to be all things to all people.
I will not accept deceit and chaos in my life.
I will love myself enough to set these boundaries
...even if it means I risk losing people in my life because of them.
