Sometimes you might be a little too "nice." You're uncomfortable asserting yourself and likely feel resentful of people who aren't afraid to use their voices. Your passivity could come from a lack of confidence — you might think you don't deserve to express your thoughts and feelings, but nothing could be further from the truth, friend.

No matter how assertive you may or may not be, communicating and courageously asking for what you want is possible. It might take a bit of practice, but once you commit, you'll see an instant transformation. Get ready to honor your worth and watch your relationships flourish. This quiz is just the beginning 👯‍♀️✨🙌

"To be passive is to let others decide for you. To be aggressive is to decide for others. To be assertive is to decide for yourself. And to trust that there is enough, that you are enough." ― Edith Eva Eger

~ How to Start Asserting Your Worth and Respectfully Speaking Your Truth ~

1. Set Strong Boundaries

Strong boundaries are essential to asserting yourself, but before you start setting them, you have to decide what they are — what behaviors are or aren't acceptable to you. Consider what people, places, and situations have made you uneasy in the past, and the next time you have to confront them, clearly, calmly communicate what isn't working for you.

2. Take Yourself Seriously

If you believe your voice doesn't deserve to be heard, you're so not alone. Many people silence themselves because they're scared of upsetting others. But when you choose not to speak up, you're playing small and not staying true to yourself. You're so worthy of being listened to, friend, and your unique interests and needs are just as valid as anyone else's.

3. Own Your Expectations

You're right to want certain things from life, but if you don't know how to ask, it's less likely you'll actually get them. That's why it's so vital to vocalize your expectations — even if it's uncomfortable. You'll be surprised how much change a word or two can make, especially when they're delivered in a respectful manner. So get out there and state your stance!
