Anger: Lose your cool and appear foolish. Two middle-aged women arguing over a parking spot was a scene I recently witnessed in a mall parking lot that has stayed with me. While threateningly waving their arms, they were both standing next to their cars and yelling at one another. The argument eventually became a name-calling competition, with each trying to outdo the other. The sad thing was that the store wasnt busy and there were plenty of empty spaces available. When their argument got so heated, other shoppers started stopping to watch the show. Meanwhile, the womens children sat in their cars and witnessed the whole scene. How proud must those children be! The fact is that everybody gets angry. Whether it is at a family member, a co-worker or the stranger who took our parking spot, we all get angry. The problem with getting angry is that there is only a slim chance that it might solve the problem, but a much greater chance itll create new ones. Anger is really us losing control and when we lose control bad things usually happen. At home it can mean a damaged relationship, in public it can mean a confrontation with a stranger, and at work it can mean getting fired or skipped over for promotion. Samaria Maxamus said, Anger itself does more harm than the condition that caused it. If you cant remember that, try: Anger is only 1 letter away from danger! Lets be honest here, just like the two women in the parking lot, most of us can look and act pretty foolishly when were angry – usually saying and doing things well later regret. Getting angry is a lot like being drunk, the intoxicated person is the only one who doesnt realize he has a problem. What makes anger so dangerous is that it can occur so quickly weve lost control before we even realize it. Gaining back control is the only way to minimize damage. Before we can begin to diminish our anger we first have to understand what causes anger. There is really only one reason why we get angry and that is because someone didnt act the way we wanted them to. Interesting, isnt it? Anger is not an action, but how we respond to anothers action. Getting angry is letting someone else control you. When was the last time something good came out of you getting angry? According to Benjamin Franklin, "Whatever is started in anger ends in shame." The next time you find yourself getting angry, try and take a moment to ask yourself these questions: Is winning this argument really worth ruining the relationship? How important will this be a year from now? In a month's time? A day or even an hour from now? The moment you take back control youll lose the anger. Dont let someone else control how you feel. Who in fact suffers when you become enraged? The Buddha said, Holding on to anger is like holding on to a red-hot coal, youre the only one whos going to get burned. Why is it that when we hurt ourselves physically we learn not to do it again, but when we hurt ourselves emotionally we repeat the same action over and over? No one benefits from anger. The best way to end an argument is to bite your tongue. That's not admitting fault; rather, it's managing anger. Reclaim control. Besides, even if you win the argument, you still cant enjoy the present if youre angry about the past.

This article looks at strategies and gives advice to help people control their anger. I am sure that we all become angry from time to time and want to lash out at the people who are annoying us or who have let us down. This is course is not the answer and the article gives tips on how we should be responding to these situations. I used to get angry easily and couldn't believe the way some people treated me. I wanted to teach them a lesson which would help them to mend their ways. The only way I could think of responding was by shouting at them, threatening them or by using violence against them. I will give you an example of a situation where a person basically cheated me out of a large sum of money. I was looking at turning my front garden into a driveway and I had a number of people around to the house, all of which gave me a quote for the work. I decided to accept a quote from John who seemed a very nice and trustworthy man. Him and his team spent a couple of days laying the drive during which I was keeping them well supplied with foods and drinks, we all got on very well. He advised me not to park my car on the new drive for a few days to let it settle and become hardened. I drove my car onto the new driveway after waiting a week. The driveway dipped to my horror, and I later learned from a friend that no hardcore (I think that's what it is called) had been laid. I tried to contact John but he did not answer his phone, I went round to see him and he would not answer his door. I became more and more angry and started to plan my revenge. Walking away I had many options through the courts which I could and did pursue. It was a lengthy process and John basically did not have any money to repay me despite eventually admitting responsibility. I have now decided to let nature take its course and to walk away. This is not just from the situation above but from any similar event. When me wife annoys me, I will just walk away to compose myself. I was once told to count to ten which is certainly a good idea. Being angry, like the way I always used to be, is not good for my health and causes me to become stressed, to become depressed and to lose sleep. I now see people as apples in a bucket. Out of ten apples, three will be rotten. I feel sorry for the rotten apples rather than anger at them. I firmly believe in God and have now decided that I do not need to seek any form of revenge as he will be judge and jury on judgement day. At this stage these people will have nowhere to hide. Living life this way is far easier for me and I only wish I had had this approach and form of anger management technique, years ago.
