People need to be able to protect themselves without doing damage to others. I can learn to protect my sense of well-being without injuring someone else's. Whenever I have to say no, tell someone I do not like something they are doing, tell someone when I am hurting, and ask for, or allow, my own needs to be met, I need to do it without putting anyone else down. I need to deal with the issue, not the personality, and take responsibility for myself by not blaming others.
Help me to know that if I am honest, I need not become defensive.
To be assertive.
