But tolerance can look like sacrificing your well-being to avoid conflict.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For instance, staying silent when someone repeatedly disrespects you isn&rsquo;t kindness; it&rsquo;s tolerating.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The nuance between these two behaviors is that true grace allows you to set limits compassionately, making clear what&rsquo;s acceptable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When you start <strong>dismissing your own feelings<\/strong> or needs just to keep someone happy, you&rsquo;re crossing tolerance, which can lead to burnout and resentment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It&rsquo;s important to understand that confrontation doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean fighting or yelling. It merely means stating your needs and demanding they&rsquo;re met.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6.
