Today I saw Episode 19 of my little pony and its best one so far.  The shy pony Fluttershy is a pushover and Everypony is taking advantage of her.
Rarity and Pinkie Pie urge her to be more assertive they try to lend a helping hoof.
Fluttershy is too timid.
Later that day or week, she is going through her mail. She reads a flyer about a Minotaur named Ironwill who helps ponies become more assertive.  She attends his workshop.  

This is the advert.

The incredible Iron Will turns doormats into dynamos. Assertiveness seminar today, hedge maze centre.


Well I like how Fluttershy goes overboard with her assertiveness.  And the letter to the princess is one anyone or pony can relate.


   Dear Princess Celestia, sometimes it can be hard for a shy pony like me to stand up for myself, and when I first tried it, I didn't like the pony I became. But I've learned that standing up for yourself isn't the same as changing who you are. Now I know how to put my hoof down without being unpleasant, or mean.


I love the Mr T reference "I pity the foal..."
