Stop Anger Choices: Avoid Them

- However, the anger will not be making the choices but only triggering them.
- Anger choices are usually to hurt back, and this is not always practical, realistic, or warranted.
- Anger choices based on ego pain, emotional hurt, and feelings of being slighted are nearly always foolish and counterproductive.
