E-Book – How Can I Stand Up for Myself?
$24.95Each and every day teens are faced with situations in which they either hide away from the confrontation or they stand up and express their views without disrespecting other people. Standing up for yourself is a crucial life skill to learn. Being unassertive, and a people pleaser, can end up with them being used and manipulated. It is important to remind teens that standing up for themselves can be really challenging if they are used to letting others have their way or if they are a people pleaser. Many teens worry how others will view them when they say no. They do not want to be viewed as lazy, uncaring, selfish or narcissistic. They do not want to be disliked and cut from friends and family members.
What’s The Courage of Convictions All About?
$24.95Steadfast courage of personal convictions is one of the most important traits a teen can develop in today’s fast-paced world. Personal convictions reveal your own strength of character and your strong beliefs about people and society, injustices in the world, and life in general. If you have a strong conviction about the way life is and how it should be lived, you will be more likely to be courageous in the face of peer pressure. You will be more likely to stand up and fight for what you think is right. The most courageous teens in life are that way because they defend their strong convictions about what is right and what is wrong.
