Alamo, I would start slow with boundaries, and work on one thing at a time. Trying to change too much at once will feel forced.

Remember, a boundary is an internal thing you set and only enforce if it is crossed. It should not seem like retaliation, because you enforce your boundaries in a very calm and collected manner, without any kind of anger or spite.

This is where being decisive comes in, you are not a decisive man if the boundaries keep moving. You will not be respected if you set boundaries and then do not enforce them.
