The Assertiveness Workbook: How to Express Your Ideas & Stand Up for Yourself at Work & in Relationships by Randy J. Paterson
5.0
Everybody should read this book. Or go to therapy. Or both. Or not. You're your own person make your own choices, I can't tell you what to do.
This book helped me understand a lot about myself and how I perceive the world and people around me. It helped me realize that I'm my own person and I'm entitled have emotions and let people know how I feel.
I seriously can't recommend this book enough for people who feel overwhelmed with life, or people who just want to be better communicators. This book doesn't just help you be more assertive, it helps you recognize other types of behavior that you and the people around you exhibit (passiveness, aggressiveness, passive-aggressiveness).
The way the chapters are written is so incredibly conversational and easy to read and understand. It feels like you're talking to someone who wants to help you, not just teach you stuff.
