In the end, as a leader, you are always going to get a combination of two things: what you create and what you allow.

When we begin to set boundaries with people we love, a really hard thing happens: they hurt. They may feel a hole where you used to plug up their aloneness, their disorganization, or their financial irresponsibility. Whatever it is, they will feel a loss.

If you have been enabling them to be irresponsible, your limit setting may nudge them toward responsibility.
