Stand your ground without guilt, fear, or awkward tension. Finally get what you deserve and stop letting it slide.
Who is making your life choices for you? Make sure you possess the everyday assertiveness to choose for yourself and resist the pressures from all angles of life. You’ve put yourself last your entire life. It’s time for that to change.
Stop enabling, people pleasing, and being so agreeable. The Art of Everyday Assertiveness is a guide for the chronically nice, overwhelmed, and accommodating. It is a deep psychological dive into what makes us lack assertiveness and how to systematically combat those compulsions. It’s a book that stands apart from others because of the plethora of real-life examples and solutions.
If your problem is assertiveness, you’ll find the step-by-step answer in this book. Included is a 28-day assertiveness action plan unlike any other. Gain respect, set boundaries, and ask for what you really want.
Patrick King is an internationally best-selling author and social skills coach. His writing draws on a variety of sources, including research, academic experience, coaching, and real-life experience. He’s also a recovering people pleaser who knows exactly how it feels to feel unable to speak his mind.

What disappointed you about The Art of Everyday Assertiveness: Speak Up. Say No. Set Boundaries. Take Back Control.?
From reading this book, Patrick King came off a bit chauvinistic...maybe his last name has gone to his head - King. As a woman, couldn't get into his book. I think it's geared more for men. I have to say, if a man did some of the things he suggests, I would slap him. If you are a woman, I recommend The Assertiveness Guide for Woman by Julie de Azevedo HanksToo Macho
