toBE assertive is not just a difficulty for some – everybody ‘suffers’ from it somewhere. Do you often find that others coerce you into thinking their way? Is it difficult for you to express your positive or negative feelings and thoughts openly and honestly? Do you sometimes lose control and become angry at others who don't warrant it? A "yes" answer to any of the above questions may be an expression of "lack of assertiveness." Assertiveness is the ability to express yourself and your rights without violating the rights of others. It is appropriately direct, open, and honest communication which is self-enhancing and expressive. Being assertive will allow you to feel self-confident and will generally gain you the respect of your peers and friends. It will improve your decision-making ability and possibly your chances of getting what you really want from life.
