Essay: Write a 3-part assertive statement to a friend who keeps making plans with you and then cancelling at the last minute.

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: You should still choose to communicate assertively because people notice the tone and the words that you say even if you don’t get your way. They will remember that even though it didn’t go the way you wanted you still expressed your thoughts in a kind direct manner while still getting to your point. |
