Based from the website https://www.skillsyouneed.com/ps/assertiveness.html Being assertive means being able to stand up for your own or other people's rights in a calm and positive way, without being either aggressive, or passively accepting wrong.
So to answer your question, no assertive communication does not mean to persuade others to agree with your point of view, it just means to stand up for what you or other people believe in.
Hope this is what your looking for!
An individual's finances can affect the means by which they can do physical activiry, which in turn affects their ability to keep physically fit.
If, for example, an individual has a small amount of finances to their name, they may not be able to access specialized equipment that would normally be found in places such as gyms (which require a paid membership most of the time).
In short: There's only so much one can do for free and without any kind of fitness equipment.
