Tshidi M Wyllie & Thabiso Tshwenyana on DUMA FM 🇧🇼 - PAA : Passive, Aggressive & Assertiveness
There are different behaviour patterns people function from in dealing with other people. Our behaviours may fall into the PAA ( Passive, Aggressive or Assertive ) patterns.
It's important to be aware of the traits of each and try to be more skewed to being Assertive than being Aggressive or Passive. An Assertive person has awareness of self and awareness of others and therefore treat others in a non hurtful ways. Assertive people are aware of their emotions and emotions of others, but Aggressiveness present itself in a more self-centerednes with very little care about the feelings of other people, whilst passiveness predisposes people to being abused as one does not effectively stand for their needs, wants or rights and have limited emotional self expression as they function more from submissiveness/ passiveness and hence they do not effectively express their emotions. Passive people tend to allow people to walk all over them, this can be unhealthy as they internally build resentment, harbour unexpressed anger and bitterness etc.
