Mental Health: How to become Assertive

So often I have heard people say "I am just being assertive", that they care little of what other people feel about their attitude. The truth is that no individual is 100% assertive. One is said to be assertive when one is assertive most times than other times (when you are less assertive). Did I hear you say "Mmm? ".

You may say that you are assertive and that is why you always get what you want. The fact is that no one who always gets one's way all the time can claim to be mentally healthy; people tend to avoid such people because they can easily manipulate others.

 Assertiveness is not when you have to yell, cry (as kids usually do), shout at others in other to have your way. It is not when you keep quiet because you want to please others at your own detriment.



Assertiveness is not even a particular personality trait because once upon a time we were all assertive as toddlers, who always cannot surpress their emotions, feelings, thoughts, or even opinion publicly.  That is to say that our level of assertiveness depends on environmental factors.

Unassertiveness can easily lead to low self esteem. The good news is that one can determine one's level of assertivesness by chatting with a Psychologist today.

Low self esteem can easily drift to depression and other psychological induced sickness. Be assertive today and help your love ones.
