There’s nothing good or bad but thinking makes it so.

-William Shakespeare

Anger is no exception. It is an emotion. It has pros and cons.

What are the pros?

What are the cons?

Here’s what I came up with:

Pros

I feel powerful and energizedPeople listen to meShit gets done

Cons

I do things I regretI say things I regretI blame othersI instil fear in othersI don’t take responsibility, so I stop myself from growingIt impairs my judgment and decision-making abilityI repel my loved onesIt wears out my adrenal glandsI put stress on my body and mindI can’t be peaceful while I’m angry

Anger is a choice.

Often it feels like it’s an instinctual reaction that you have no control over.

But is that true?

Conclusion

Anger sucks.

What would you rather feel?

Choose that!
