One key strategy for improving personal assertiveness is to ask for permission to say no when faced with demands. Instead of directly declining a request, individuals can phrase it as a query, such as, 'Is it okay if I say no?' This approach often leads to more acceptance from others, allowing people to maintain their boundaries without feeling guilty. By using this technique, individuals can cultivate healthier communication habits and more effectively manage their time and energy.
