Stood up to my boss today

I'm on week 7 this week (assertiveness). I had to write in to say that I calmly stood up to my boss TWICE today ! He seems to have problems with anxiety and panic as well. LOL He snapped twice at me today for things that had nothing to do with me. Before, I may have seethed about it for weeks. Not this time.

!!!!! I calmly explained to him that I had nothing to do with those issues and helped direct him to the proper people. I think I'm going to sleep well tonight.

manofmusic,
thanks for your reply and also congrats for being assertive! Doesn't it feel good to stand up for yourself? We have to be assertive and take care of ourselves or else we will continue the viscious cycle we are trying to get off of. Good for you! Keep up the great work!

Wow again manofmusic, you just keep climbing higher and higher each week out of that hole you were in when you started here not all that long ago. I'm so proud of all you have accomplished and it's so encouraging to others who read about things like this. You enjoy a great nights sleep, you surely earned it.

Great Post!!!
