Тест на ассертивность

Often other people try to attract us
to cases or to the execution of decisions that we
not to our liking and to participate in which we do not agree. Often we find ourselves in situations where we ourselves want to achieve something that is considered good.
If events take an undesirable turn, then whether due to the nature of character or under the influence of mood, we either withdraw into ourselves, or rush into battle with excessive obstinacy. Respectively,
or retreat, surrendering one position after another, or
we make enemies for ourselves rather than achieve
satisfaction of their needs or desires.
To negotiate and come to an agreement with others, and not only for the benefit of ourselves, but, as a rule, for the benefit of our opponents - this is a method of behavior called
assertive, assumes that the person knows
what he wants and does not want (at least
in this particular situation) and can it be clear
formulate - without fear, uncertainty, tension, irony, sarcasm or any other form of attack on the opposite side.
An assertive person does not act
to the detriment of anyone, respecting the rights of others, but
at the same time it does not allow twisting ropes out of itself. He achieves the desired goal without harming others. He achieves his goal without manipulating opponents through feelings of guilt or in any other way from the category of methods of emotional blackmail. He knows how to persuade others to provide him with help or courtesy. He does not withdraw into himself, receiving a refusal in what he, in fact, had no right to count on. In the event of a clash of interests, he is able to negotiate and find a compromise solution that satisfies both parties.
