Assertiveness Training: Become Confident, Clear, Controlled

Assertiveness is a mode of communication. It is the ability to express your feelings, ideas, views, and opinions openly without violating the rights of others.

Effects of being unassertive

The main effect of not being assertive is that it can lead to low self esteem.

If we never express ourselves openly and conceal our thoughts and feelings this can make us feel tense, stressed, anxious or resentful. It can also lead to unhealthy and uncomfortable relationships. We will feel like the people closest to us don’t really know us.

Less assertive people are likely to suffer from social phobia, anxiety and also have higher incidence of depression and substance abuse.

Assertiveness is a communication skill which can be easily learned online.
