Life Skills: How to Be Assertive Without Being a Jerk

What makes this course different? This course is about learning ways to assert yourself with a focus on learning better ways to be yourself. The goal is for you to become assertively normal, that is, be you without needing to be pushy. By the end of this course, you will be able to disagree in any number of ways without becoming disagreeable.

People who are not assertive are usually kind, thoughtful, caring people, with good intentions. Trouble is, they pay a price for being nice. They often give way to the interests of others, get stepped on, ignored, suffer self-esteem issues and otherwise do not live full and rich lives.

Since these people do not want to harm others, they are afraid of acting more assertively and have difficulty changing. They would like to be heard, but not by becoming a jerk.

I've been helping people with this problem for 50 years and I know how you can find your place in the sun.

You will learn how to begin changing right away. The goal will be for you to have normal people interactions and to be assertive when that is necessary. You will learn what to do and what not to do. You will learn specific and unique tools, such as Ob-Quest and the Columbo Technique. Some of the lessons will come from my life, like my brother-in-law and the full apple barrel.

My courses are informal and friendly, usually containing unique concepts and techniques that I have created over a half-century of experience.

If you would like to become more assertive yet still caring about others or want to learn how to communicate better, this course is worth a look. Watch the preview material and dive in. Welcome.
