Be confident and assertive from "summary" of How to Talk to Anybody About Anything by Leil Lowndes

To truly connect with others and make a lasting impression, it is essential to exude confidence and assertiveness in your communication. Confidence is like a magnetic force that draws people in and makes them want to listen to what you have to say. When you speak with confidence, you show others that you believe in yourself and your message, which in turn makes them more likely to believe in you too. Assertiveness, on the other hand, is about standing up for yourself and expressing your thoughts and opinions clearly and directly. It is not about being aggressive or domineering, but rather about being firm and decisive in your communication. When you are assertive, you show others that you are not afraid to speak your mind and that you value your own opinions and beliefs. By combining confidence and assertiveness in your communication, you can command attention and respect from those around you. People are naturally drawn to those who are self-assured and unafraid to speak their minds. When you speak with confidence and assertiveness, you send a clear message that you are someone worth listening to and taking seriously. However, it is important to remember that confidence and assertiveness must be balanced with empathy and respect for others. It is not enough to simply assert your own opinions without considering the thoughts and feelings of those around you. True communication is a two-way street, and listening and responding to others with empathy and understanding is just as important as expressing your own thoughts and opinions.
  1. When you are confident and assertive in your communication, you can make a powerful impact and forge meaningful connections with others. By speaking with conviction and standing up for yourself, you show others that you are someone worth listening to and that you value your own beliefs and opinions. So, remember to speak with confidence and assertiveness while also showing empathy and respect for those around you.
