What Does Assertive Communication Sound Like 👍

Assertive communication is the ability to stand up for our own needs, rights, and boundaries while respecting the rights and opinions of others. Here is what assertive communication sounds like:

- "It seems like we disagree on this. Let's find a solution that will work for us both."
- "Thank you for thinking of me, but I am going to decline your request this time."
- "I feel upset when..."
- "I respect your opinion on this, but I prefer to make my own decision."
- "I would love to help, but I have a lot of work to complete today. I hope you are able to find someone else to assist you though."
- "This is what works best for me. Would that work for you?"

We've been having this kind of communication in my family since me and my sis was kids. I think that has really helped on making my family open and safe to talk to. Especially my mom, she has done a great job on teaching us to communicating our feelings and finding compromises in fights.

My psychologist encouraged me to talk in an assertive way. Thanks for the examples.

Here's another one: "I understand you're upset, but you're hurting me. How about helping you to find a solution?"
