Good listening
Compulsive “yes” to every request is not my problem, rather finding nice ways to decline unnecassary requests from zero-tolerance people. I did find parts of the book useful for that, especially regarding respectful “no’s”. It was good to listen to.

Don't Waste Your Time
This book is generic. You've already heard or concluded everything the author has to say. I feel like I could have wrote something better. Very little insight is offered on this subject by this book. Not worth the time. It may be good for junior high or high school kids but not adults with a lot life experience. Furthermore, the assertiveness problems the author presents is only from a first world privileged position i.e. Someone getting your order wrong at Starbucks. Really? There's real issues in the world. I recommend reading Brene Brown's books instead. Her honesty through vulnerability approach to solving people pleasing has been working well for me. Save your money or audible credits!

Confusing and full of contradictions
I wanted to love this book but found it very difficult to follow. Say a simple no/don’t use the word no, don’t give an excuse/give a reason etc.
I think the author meant to offer different approaches to different scenarios but this wasn’t made very clear.
He spends a lot more time talking about what not to say rather than giving great examples of what to say.
