ASSERTIVENESS
This is a funny word in that just by saying people (typically the weak minded) go on the defense.
This word is also bandied about by those that do not fully understand what it means and ignorantly believe this word is the extreme form of the word AGGRESSIVE.
No my friends,Assertiveness is defined as "the quality of being self-assured and confident without being aggressive to defend a right point of view or a relevant statement."
So, you see where the disconnect can occur.
The weak minded get offended when actually they are being paid a compliment.
The weak minded believe it is an insult to tag someone as assertive.
Get familiar with this word and what it EXACTLY means and when and how to use it.
Hope you saw how I was assertive in this post, while at times I actually bordered on being aggressive.
Get to work!
