8 Steps of Anger Reacting: Message

  • Anger is supposed to stop the source of pain for you.
  • For example, if you are experiencing physical pain, then anger will help you fight to stop it.
  • However, when the pain is ego pain, then anger most often gets misdirected at others instead of your thinking that is causing your ego pain.
  • Therefore, stop blaming and damning yourself, and you will stop blaming and damning others.
  • You cannot control others, but you can control your thinking. Stop hurting yourself with self-damning.
