Dear Women of the World,
Please start speaking up to ask for what you want. People can neither read your mind nor just know what you want. They can’t. It’s time for you to calmly and pleasantly ask for what you want.
It's time for you to calmly and pleasantly ask for what you want. Click To TweetHere are some examples:
“No.”
“I would like a raise because I have proven my worth. Let me know if you need examples.”
“I want to be promoted.”
“I would like you to put your dishes away.”
“It’s not okay for you to talk to me that way and if you continue to do so, I will leave the conversation.”
“No.”
“I haven’t finished what I was saying.”
“That was my idea.”
“I’m the right person for the job.”
“If you get home from work before me, you need to start cooking dinner.”
“No.”
Let me know if you need more examples or if you need any help putting your thoughts and desires into words.
Love,
Lisa Kaplin Psy. D. PCC
