How to be more assertive
It made me
resilient 
"Taking risks and forgoing the consequences."
How I did it: When I'm scared to do something, I try to think about what impact would be less desirable: If I do it and it works out, if I do it and it doesn't work out, and if I do absolutely nothing. I'm finding more and more that even if the risks I take don't work out, I can at least say I've done it. That makes it worth it.
Lessons & tips: None in particular...Just remember that you are the only person you have to live with for the rest of your life, so you might as well do what makes you hapy.
Resources: "There Goes the Fear" by the Doves. Best song ever...
