All the anger and vitriol around us is generally due to a situation that certain people believe is an impediment to their happiness. Conditions out of synch with our world view can set us off. But if happiness is at the core and is the point, it’s a display of insanity to further aggravate oneself pushing us further and further from any chance of joy.
Examples: if you are late for work, an appointment or a meeting, would you stop? Stand still? Head the other way ?
Not if still want to make the appointment. You would rush a bit, or call and get the time moved, or something to ensure you could still have the intended outcome.
Not the other choices that guarantee the intention is blown.
Or; the plan is to clean a room. Would it make sense to dump garbage on the floor and empty all the drawers in the room onto the furniture while spilling grease on the carpet just because your child dropped a potato chip on the floor?
Of course not. You would just add the chip to you list of things to clean and your goal will still be possible.
When we immediately default to anger over diversion from our intentions, we ensure happiness will be out of reach.
There is never a real reason for anger when action is the answer.
Chill out and reevaluate before blowing up and blowing it !
