without resorting to anger.
- Do you have low self esteem?
- Do you sometimes “lose it” and find yourself getting angry instead of assertive?
- Have you ever been the target of bullies, either at school or at work?
- Do you find yourself getting “tongue-tied” in tricky situations?
- Do you find yourself imagining exactly what you wish you had said, but only when
it’s too late?
