Sincerely believe in your opinions and make sure you can explain the reasoning (facts) of your opinions. Believe in yourself and state your thoughts and feelings assertively not aggressively.
Good luck!

Don't speak to softly or timidly, hold your head up when walking, talking, be confident in your actions and in what you say, believe in yourself and your values. Read up on 'body language' - present good body language. All of the above without being over-bearing, that would just make people think you're a jerk otherwise.

Its funny, but I have none, unless I am around people i trust and respect. Ever notice how much more powerful people act and feel when they are around a group of friends? So, my answer would be have your friends follow you wherever you go! If you cant do that, than try to imagine the person you are around as easy going as your friends, and you'll find yourself calmer and easier to speak your mind.

Show that you deserve it, clout is much like respect, it can only be earned.

Rob a bank then sleep with the sheriff's wife while he is out searching for you. Shoot his dog and tell his kids that you are their new daddy.
