Resumen del Editor

Set boundaries & stand up for yourself

If you are interested in learning how to be assertive, get what you want, increase your self-esteem, and confidence, then this book, Assertiveness: Set Boundaries, Stand Up for Yourself and Finally Get What You Want is the audiobook you want to listen to.

Whether you have a passive personality and are struggling to be more assertive, or you're a people-pleaser who has problems with saying no without feeling guilty, or you have an aggressive personality where you get what you want, but get it in such a way that you are not well liked, and your manner puts people off, then you need to listen to this audiobook.

Inside you will find valuable information on the assertive personality, techniques, and tips that are designed to ensure you are armed with all the tools you need to become more assertive, get what you want, set your boundaries, and increase your confidence and self-esteem.

You will learn about how, as a child, your environment and how you were treated by your parents, family members, friends, and people in authority may have stunted your ability to speak up. You may have grown up in an environment that made you fearful of having a voice, being either mocked, dismissed, or laughed at.

If you have grappled with the problem of saying “No” without feeling guilty or have never clearly set boundaries for yourself and for others to respect, there are chapters that can help you understand why these personality traits exist, how they begin, and how you can go about changing them.

There is so much more information that is within this book. Here are some of the other highlights that you'll learn about:

• What is assertiveness and how to learn to make assertive statements, how to practice body language, the tone of voice, and why making eye contact is important
• How we negative-speak, why this happens, and what steps and techniques can be taken to relieve this type of behavior
• How not being assertive can be damaging to not only our psychological health but to our physical health as well, causing stress, and high blood pressure as examples
• How in learning and practicing our assertive skills, you can help to teach your children how to be assertive, particularly in this day and age of bullying at school and online
• How to set boundaries with family, friends, and in business to have healthy relationships in all areas
• And much more

Good information

I recieved this book in exchange for an unbiased review
I have already begun to use the info in this book to try and be more assertive. I feel like it is already helping me feel more confident and better about myself.

Helpful and eye opening!

Steven West led me to consider behavior that I didn’t realize was unhealthy. I also was grateful for the advice on ways to change, ways to express myself and approaches to setting boundaries. I feel that Raymond Lawrence gave a good performance.

"saying “No” without feeling guilty" , Oh, I need

Clear concise and brief. Steven West has authored a little gem to help navigate life's difficulties. I also thoroughly enjoyed Raymond Lawrence's narration and vocal delivery. Good book well worth my time, Thanks

This book is amazing

Very informative . Worth every penny. I recommend for anybody who has social anxiety

Informative and Useful

This is a great book to learn about aggressiveness, assertiveness, and passiveness. It goes over the definitions and differences of each to help you better understand the importance of assertiveness. Steven also talks about the body language that is an addition to your tone. Near the end of the book, he explains the importance of children learning this lesson at a young age to help them develop who they are and to be able to help themselves when difficult situations arise.
Raymond did another good job with this narration. His tone was uplifting, helpful, and kept my attention throughout the whole book.
