Subscribe/Renew Journal
The present paper throws light upon those aspects of a human-being, which if handled carefully can lead one to a more fulfilling, conducive and wholesome life. Assertiveness is one such survival skill, which, if taught and instilled at the right time and in the right manner can save many from rating their lives as unfulfilling. Assertiveness teaches one to respect oneself and respecting others at the same time. It teaches one towards increased awareness of personal rights and paying attention to one's verbal as well as non-verbal skills also. At the same time, not violating the rights of others is the other side of an assertive individual. Social Anxiety and Self-efficacy are two such variables, which are directly related to Assertiveness, the former negatively and the latter positively. High Social Anxiety and Low Self Efficacy are two such obstacles, which can put hindrance in the growth of an individual in a multidimensional way-Emotionally, Behaviourally and Socially.
