Be bold, avoid stress

Do you lack confidence and self-esteem, or suffer from chronic stress, depression, anxiety disorders, anger issues, relationship and parenting problems or workplace bullying? It’s time for you to be assertive.

Research shows that being assertive (which you shouldn’t confuse with forcefulness) is good for your mental wellbeing and that people who are assertive are more confident, have better paying jobs and relationships, and are less likely to experience stress or depression. And with loads of books and online resources, anyone can learn to be more assertive.

So, it’s time you learnt how to say no.
