Are you a Pushover?

Do you struggle to say ‘No’ to people- even when you know that you are right? If you feel like you are a pushover, then its time that you start standing up for yourself!- we have a few tips that we believe can help you become the more assertive, strong, confident individual that you know you are.

Take a look at yourself

Examine how, and in what situations you tend to back down. As you open your mind and self reflect about where and what it is that makes you feel the way you do, it will become clearer and easier to you exactly how you can improve.

You are just as important as everybody else

One of the main reasons why people become push overs is that they forget that they are entitled to the same level of respect and politeness as everyone around them. Your values and opinions are important-you are important- value yourself and others will begin to value you.

Be confident in mind, body, and spirit

The way you present yourself to those around you is very important. Your body language speaks louder than your words of how you view yourself.Get in the habit of standing up straight with your shoulders back and relax your arms- this will send a distinct message of openness and confidence to everyone. Don’t underestimate the power of eye contact and remember, smiling can go a very long way.

Be assertive

This is a lot easier than you think. You can start with something simple like deciding what your going to have for lunch; let people know what you think and why. Its important that you try your best to get out of the habit of saying ‘I don’t mind’ and making others make decisions for you.
