    This is my first encounter with this channel and I subscribed right away. This channel is very impactful and knowledge-heavy. Thank you so much for your hard work and consistency. God bless you. Can’t wait to learn more from you.
  • P.A.B: Focuses on making the other person feel bad, while avoiding responsibility. Responsibility= your ability to respond. Good show!
  • Absolutely helped me with my major assignment and now I'm definitely going to implement this on myself as well. Thank you!!
  • @wulh981
    How Great you are! Your teaching methodology is thoughtful and inspiring! Thank you a lot!
  • I am passive and need and hope to be more assertive. I know aggressive people and you can feel beaten up after just a conversation and i am not expecting it and dont know why they bother doing it so not ready for it then you can feel squished and self doubting. I also know assertive people who are you can think that and i think this and thats ok which is bril. I need to find how to be more assertive.
  • THANK YOU SO MUCH for this very well done, concise explanation. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 I will act and think better because of you! On occasion, I have behaved passive-aggressively because I lacked the skills to graciously address the issue and I did not want to be perceived as sensitive or petty.
  • THANK YOU SO MUCH. HELPED TO WRITE ESSAY FOR MY DEGREE AND MERIT PASS
