@1:50 Reminds me of this interaction on Mos Eisley: Stormtrooper: Let me see your identification. Ben Kenobi: You don’t need to see his identification. Stormtrooper: We don’t need to see his identification. Ben Kenobi: These aren’t the droids you’re looking for. Stormtrooper: These aren’t the droids we’re looking for. Ben Kenobi: He can go about his business. Stormtrooper: You can go about your business. Ben Kenobi: Move along. Stormtrooper: Move along. Move along.
This one is tough for a lot of people. People are emotional. I've been able to do what you're talking about hear, and I've found you can help the more emotional people by being as KIND as you can while you're being assertive. Great video!
i learned from eckhart tolle to STICK TO FACTS. when being assertive. that there is nothing wrong with being firm but in control of your emotions. " my soup is cold can you please heat it up" if the waiter brought cold soup. that's fact. but when you go to the mindset " how dare you " or "jerk, bitch". ect. is when the ego gets involved.

My son is 6. He's as stubborn as me. I find that I must be assertive for a very long time and Never get angry or I'll never get what I want from him.
Thank you! You have no idea how much this helps me at this moment. Be assertive calm and confident and direct is a must for mental health

Very clear and wise, and he could play Brad Pitt's double.
So first thing I'm doing with this video is reading all the titles on his bookshelf!
Second thing: Did he "get in before Thanksgiving"?!
