Review: No fluff, just the why its happening and strategies to stop it - Patrick King’s Art of Everyday Assertiveness was recommended to me along with a second book that I will be reading soon. It is an excellent, straight-to-the-point primer that can be digested relatively quickly. It has some very important and effective strategies for recognizing where one’s boundaries are currently, how various factors in our lives have led us to where we are, and the ways in which having poor personal boundaries can negatively impact every area of our lives. After identifying where we’re at, the book uses a straightforward approach to presenting strategies and using them in our day to day lives, as well as a one-month suggested timeline for executing a variety of activities to slowly build up our assertiveness and being aware of what we are doing through cognitive behavior therapy / exposure therapy. Little by little, one can reclaim their independence and freedom from the toxic takers in our lives by simply examining where we are at, and what we need to do to get to the next step of the freedom, respect, and assertiveness we all deserve from others. It sounds crazy, but I am seeing how my own behaviors have wrecked relationships of mine and in turn wrecked me, and I am not going to live like it any more thanks to regular therapy and King’s great book. Easy to read – can kill it in a couple of sittings, but I found myself dipping in and revisiting some parts quite often afterward. The book comes with an easy-to-use outline topic summary at the end.
Review: This book conicide with my life. - The reason I gave the art of everyday assertiveness a five star rating, because I need to work on being assertive. Patrick king explain what assertive mean and how be assertive in everyday life. This book help me understand that I need to be more assertive and stop pleasing people all the time. I wrote down the personal bill of rights, he mentioned in the book and I'm going to read them everyday, so I can remember to use them in situations when i start trying to please people. The chapter he explains that it's ok to say no resonate with me because I have a issue with not saying no alot. He explains that you can say no without giving any reason and alot of people are afariad of saying no because it can start a mini confrontation. I am going to use the advice that Patrick king,explain that it ok to say no even if I'm scared it's going to start a mini confrontation. He aslo explain difference between being passive, aggression, passive aggression and assertive. He break down each one and give examples on how the outcome will be. It's better to be assertive in any situation because it boost your confidence and people will respect you more and if you get turned down or somebody says no to you, you better not pout. The latter was said in the book I like that because everyone is not going to say yes or agree with you all the time. Read this book if you want to be assertive or get a perspective on assertive.
