When clarity exists, but pressure disrupts execution.

You understand the value of direct, respectful communication. In many situations, you can express yourself clearly and appropriately.

The difficulty arises when the stakes increase. Emotions enter. Power dynamics shift. Or the timing feels uncertain. In those moments, clarity can slip.

This is not a knowledge issue.
It is a pressure issue.

Inside the Tiger Resilience framework, this pattern connects to what we call Response, which reflects choice, timing, and execution under stress.

You already have the foundation. The work now is learning how to apply it consistently when conditions are not ideal.

Assertiveness becomes reliable when response is trained, not improvised.

Growth here comes from practice, not more insight.
Consistency turns skill into habit, and habit turns confidence into something embodied.
