Why is setting boundaries important for personal well-being?

I’ve learned that setting boundaries at work is key to avoiding burnout. I started by clearly communicating my availability to colleagues and turning off work notifications outside of hours. I also learned how to set boundaries. It felt awkward at first, but once I set the expectation that I won’t respond to emails after 6 PM, it got easier. Also, I’ve stopped taking on extra tasks without checking my workload first, which has really helped me stay balanced.
