This video is your roadmap to a more assertive and fulfilling life. Stop letting others dictate your choices – take charge and start living on your own terms! Today's episode is from the book 'The Art of Everyday Assertiveness' by Patrick King. In this book, Patrick King teaches you how to stand your ground without guilt, fear, or awkward tension. Finally, get what you deserve and stop 'letting it slide.' Stop enabling, sacrificing your needs, people pleasing, and being so 'agreeable.' This is a guide for the chronically 'nice,' 'overwhelmed,' and 'accommodating.' The Art of Everyday Assertiveness is available on Amazon, and the audiobook is available on Amazon, iTunes, and Audible. Assertiveness requires a delicate balance, especially if you are new to it. You may have started as too passive, but take care to not swing into the aggressive territory where you are robbing other people of their needs. You can’t control what others do or how they might respond to you, but you can control your own behavior.


Remember Tony Robbins' six needs of human happiness: certainty, variety, significance, love and connection, growth, and contribution. These are what's at stake every time you choose to shrink away from asserting yourself.


Ultimately, the power to live as you want is within your hands, not dictated by others' acceptance. Yes, sometimes this might ruffle some feathers, but you're not living for them.


And finally, don't forget to write down your personal bill of rights and post it somewhere visible. These are your rights, not privileges.
