Who are you living your life for? Hopefully, yourself. Assertiveness is the first step to creating the life you want - not the life someone else wants for you, or taking care of someone else’s to-do list. What makes you happy? Do that. What makes you unhappy? Avoid that. If other people interfere with this simple credo, assertiveness is what will save the day.
