To improve the life that you live, you have to change yourself first and being assertive is the first step to a better you.
How often have you felt that life could be a little bit better? That you have so much to offer the world yet no one takes you seriously? That you were meant for greater things?
Maybe you need to learn how to assert yourself. No one takes you seriously because you don’t assert your presence. If you’re serious about turning your life around, then do yourself a big favour by joining the Assertiveness & Self Confidence Training Course offered by PD training in Hong Kong.
So what changes should you expect when you start training on being assertive?
Be Confident
Yes, by training to be assertive, you learn to become confident about yourself. You begin to exude success in everything that you say and do. You will start to attract people and they will start listening to you. You will also have the confidence to stand up for what you believe in and express opinions and needs using various techniques.
There is actually a thin line between confidence and arrogance. When you train to be assertive, you’ll know where to draw the line.
Learning to Say No
Sometimes you just want to please everybody. Unfortunately you can’t. There will be times when you will have to say no. Some might take it in the wrong way and you will come out in a bad light. With training, you’ll be able to say no without being rude or 
mean.
An Excellent Communicator
This course will give you the chance to bloom into an excellent communicator. Remember, communication is two-way. It is not only always about being able to say the right mix of words but is also about being an effective listener. Note that there is a big difference between listening and hearing. When you hear, you’re not really paying attention to the details. When you listen, you try to understand everything that is being said. By being great at listening, you will be able to relay the appropriate answers as well.
Let’s not forget how body language can also add to being a great communicator. Just with body language alone, you’ll be surprised at how effective it can be.
Deal with Difficult People
Difficult people are everywhere – in the office, at school, in PTA meetings and even at home. There will always be these types of people who are difficult to talk to, rationalise with or come to terms with. It’s like they were made to torment you.
When you are trained, you will know how to deal with them and even get them to your side of the fence. This is because being assertive really is not about making people feel bad about themselves or finding enemies. It is meant to change you and the people around you in a positive way.
