Feeling mad? Great! - Get angry in a good way.

Seriously? How is it even possible? This is ridiculous since anger is never good. It is merely a negative and repulsive emotion.

But it doesn't have to be this way always. Indeed, many people feel that we'd be better off without anger as an emotion. We tend to link our aggressive character with negativity, putting ourselves in moodiness, self-destruction, anger, and negative behavior toward others. A heated face, a rushing heart, and a desire to utter things best left unsaid set us on the path of collecting bits of frustration in our hearts usually turning into absurd reactions and results.

Anger protects us when someone wishes to harm us. How?

It provides us with the strength and ferocity we need to defeat a more powerful foe. In everyday settings, anger motivates us to stand up for ourselves and discover inventive solutions to the problems we confront. It is often preferable to express your feelings directly rather than bashing them into the faces of others. However, this does not imply that you begin hitting the other person. Drive your furious emotions into creating something valuable for you to calm down. OR maybe inform people that you are experiencing high emotions and that this is making it more difficult for you to speak properly than normal. We all know that this is tough since our anger has no speed restrictions, yet we can somehow control our mind speed to proportionately pour out rage in acceptable energy.

When you decide to convey your anger to others, having a sense of perspective will be very helpful. Giving your anger full rein, with outward aggressiveness or hate, is rarely recommended, but there is some evidence that controlled expressions of anger may be useful at altering beliefs.

Recognize your Anger for Self-Improvement and Enhance your Emotional Intelligence

Pause! And speak up! To begin, try not to get heated up quickly, and if you do, simply stop for 30 seconds before speaking. That 30-second break will allow you to gather your thoughts and effectively channel your responses. The intensity of your aggravation will also decrease as a consequence of sharing your inner thoughts and letting them understand that even their opinions and voices count and they have a specific cause to come out.

To be honest, I used to get irritated a lot and still do, and I realized during the previous three months that keeping my anger to myself was not a smart answer since it was taking a toll on my health. However, speaking to someone right away was also not a smart idea. So, sure, there is always a tough middle road to follow, but we humans have a penchant for making extreme decisions either this way or that way and in our wrath, we often forget that there is always a middle path for us that will eventually lead us to peace. I began channeling my rage in a more justified manner and triggering my emotions to strengthen my ultimate objective, message, point of view, and the source of my anger.

I won't claim I'm a better person today, but I'm a better version, and I've understood that my anger and emotions play a significant role in shaping my viewpoint. I began with the "psychological distance approach," in which I picture myself looking back on the situation from a future point of view, or putting myself in the shoes of a friend and asking myself how they would advise me to behave. For some people, it will be nonsense, and for others it won't work. But in a world when we might experience such unheard-of pandemics that can upend our lives, it is crucial to grasp how our emotions can not only harm ourselves but also our loved ones.

Arguments can be positive! Remember this the next time you lose your temper: it's not that horrible. You'll be better off if you can use those emotions to motivate you to complete your goal.
