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:  Even if I don't always get exactly what I want, assertive communication is still important. It helps me share my needs and feelings in a respectful way, which strengthens relationships. It also allows me to stand up for myself and my rights, which builds my confidence and self-esteem.
