Anger is a remnant of energy that the body allocates to increasing our resources to resolve injustices, manipulations, and lies.

If we are not able to channel it well, it becomes a factor that further damages the situation we are facing.

If we manage to control it and express it rationally, our anger is transformed into courage and helps to improve our lives and that of other people.

When you land in anger territory, you find many people with different causes that they are angry about. Sometimes as a result of what we have commented before and other times for much more subjective and less realistic reasons.

Close your eyes for a moment and recover a moment when you got angry. Observe what happens in your body (temperature, where “the wave” rises, what parts of your body tense up…) if it is comfortable for you, write what you feel in your journal.

Probably the encounter with angry people affects you. So, you run away to continue visiting the territory and learning.

Along the way, you meet someone very peculiar.

“In the face of anger, you can choose between reacting or responding.  It’s not easy, but it can be learned.  The reaction is automatic. The answer is rational.”

You have three ways to respond

• AGGRESSIVENESS. You explode and uncontrollably release all the energy of your anger.
• PASSIVITY. You run away from the situation on your plane and return to the territory of fear or you swallow the anger and don’t express it in any way.
• ASSERTIVENESS. You decide to calm down, observe your anger and make decisions rationally.
