This is a good prompt. I have good boundaries in my personal life. With family, friends, acquaintances, with obligations, committees, and saying no. My interpersonal boundaries are quite good professionally--there is a fine line between me and my students that I will never cross. And I have learned how to balance friendship and collegiality. I've also placed a premium on my time.
I don't know if this is a thing, but I need to set better boundaries with myself. Is that a thing? Perhaps I mean being more self-disciplined or something along those lines but I sometimes let myself down. And I don't mean grandiose ideas that slide by, I mean everyday routine things that I intend to accomplish but don't. It's not procrastination, it's intentional refusal. Things that are consequential and inconsequential. I need to unravel that.
