Does anybody have any advice on how to build assertiveness? I find being assertive almost impossible due to no self esteem and I think I'd be less scared if I knew how to be assertive.

Thanks to anybody who has advice.

when being assertive we want to bear in mind the emotional being of the other persons involved.. if we wish for satisfaction from others, it is best to take their own best interests into account... in other words, dont bite the hands that feed you, but do stick up for yourself.. hope this helps..
