    Assertiveness can be defined as an effective communication style with the help of which a person expresses his feelings, thoughts, emotions, needs and wants while maintaining rights for himself and respect for others (Suripatty, 2021)." "Assertiveness is an ability to express your feelings, emotions, desires, and needs without violating the rights of others or without being aggressive (Goldfried, 2018). Assertiveness is the best tool for everyone to stand up for their rights without violating others' rights. Assertiveness allows us to communicate constructively and positively without being rude and manipulating them. It allows a person to confidently express his feelings and rights instead of blindly following others' rules. It allows you to recognize your self-worth, competency, and ability to perform a particular task. Everyone needs to adopt this essential social skill to succeed in life. It allows us to respect others and obey their orders at the same time while maintaining for ourselves as well. It allows people to construct boundaries based on their norms, thinking patterns, and feelings and not let others break them. Assertive people don't feel shy while demanding their rights; they can communicate about it confidently. Assertiveness is an essential skill that everyone needs to learn in their life to make their personality solid and practical. (Goldfried, 2018).
