I know this sounds so weird,
but I don't like my personality at work!
I'm naturally soft-spoken and laid back. Not bc I'm shy or scared of people.. That's just how I am.
People seem to be running over me. How can I be more forceful w/o making people not like me? |

I'm not kidding. You sound like you have a social anxiety disorder. Who are you desperately trying to please by being a doormat? Your dad/mom? Why do you care if people don't like you if you speak up or look out for yourself? I've spent thousands on therapy and I suggest you talk to your GP for advice, not an industry chat board. You don't need to be a diva. That's a one-way ticket to unemployment. You need to be yourself and be comfortable with who you are and you will excel. I wish someone had told me this 20 years ago...so good luck.
