Excellent posting Uma.........
Like the elephants, how many of us go through life holding onto a belief that we cannot do something, simply because we failed at it once before? how many of us refuse to attempt something new and challenging because of our so called MINDSET? - Very Motivational lines Uma
When u trust ur assertiveness, you have the ability to express yourself and the ability to explore ur feelings, wants and needs. You are less dependent on others and more in control of ur own life.
When u assert urself, u make ur own choices. You make roon for ur confidence to explore. Practice confidention assertion by saying "Yes" to the things u want to do and "No" to the things u dont.
Dont feel afraid or guilty for asserting urself. you have nothing to lose. You will only become stronger and more self sufficient, and in turn ur self respect and self worth will shine
