Product Description

NOW YOU CAN LEARN HOW TO ASSERT YOUR RIGHTS
IN WORK
IN MARRIAGE
IN SEX
IN SOCIAL SITUATIONS
IN FAMILY LIFE
You can break from a self-limiting way of life and become that kind of person who always seems to naturally get his or her due in every situation without being pushy. It means training yourself to recognize your own fundamental human worth and making others recognize it, too. It means being able to say "no" when you want to, and knowing how to express anger and resentment when you have to. It means being successful and not feeling guilty about it. As countless graduates of Assertiveness Training can testify, launching yourself on this life-changing program is easier than you think.
