Today in our workshop session we discussed, “How to handle conflicts in a positive way”. Ms. Moten explained, compared and talked about possible outcomes of non-assertive, aggressive, and assertive behaviors. She helped us to learn how we can be assertive towards certain situations in our professional lives. Assertive behavior means, being appropriately honest, responsible, empathetic, respectful and respected. It’s difficult to be assertive but it’s not impossible. Slowly and gradually after practice every person can have it. And everyone should have this behavior because it’s a key to success in personal and professional life.
Below I would like to share a relevant thought:
“Whatever you give to life, it gives you back.
Don’t hate anybody. The hatred comes out of you, will someday come back to you.
Love others, and love will come back to you.”
If I behave aggressively this is what I will get in return. And if I behave respectfully, this is what I will get in return.
