Overview
Despite what you might think, being aggressive is not the same thing as being abrasive -- you can push harder to get what you want without turning anyone off. Being a little bit more forceful might not win you any new friends, but it is certainly not going to scare away any of the people who know and love you best. If you aren't a little bolder, you run the risk of being looked upon as an easy mark, a pushover. And that's just not who you are -- is it?
