Out of the darkness
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
My biggest problem was my aggression,I never wanted to hurt people only to explain to them what I wanted...but I only knew how to do that by being aggressive .Now although I may not always be understood I am confident that I have expressed my self in a positive,assertive manner.I have gained confidence and am no longer a 'push over who is always available,self sacrificing a victim of the compassion trap.I found this book in a used bookstore ....this is a one time gem of a buy,it is an investment in me and I'm sorry but I never loan it to ANYONE.it is the one book I refer to at all times and would safely say that 'it saved my life'.I am back to square one without it.A must have for all women
A must-read book for all women

I found this book on my library shelf. I had read many others but this was the one that did it for me. I was able to see how destructive agressiveness is and how unecessary. It also helped me to see that my needs and ambitions are important and that I have a right to pursue them. I am now buying this book because it is something I feel I will always refer back to. Strongly recommended.
A life enhancing guide to being true to yourself and others
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
I was recently assigned this book as "home work" from the psychotherapist that I am seeing. I was reluctant but was told to read and re read this book. It has truly had a huge impact on my life as a successful career woman. It has taught me what "assertive" is, that it is NOT the same as aggressive, and also how to empower yourself as a woman to get what you want and to listen to your inner voice. It allows you to be true to yourself and others. I highly recommend this book
