Essay: When you choose to be assertive, you won't always get everything you want. With that in mind, why should you still choose to communicate assertively? Provide two reasons.
Student Answer: One reason is the next time you ask for something, and whoever you’re asking remembers how assertive you were, you are more likely to get your way that time. Another reason is it will show the person you have patience, and they may change their mind right then and there. |
