When people and things frustrate our personal goals,
anger results.
People do not make us angry. We may think that
people make us angry, but
most of the time they simply reveal our own selfishness.
What usually makes
us angry is our lack of control over people and
circumstances. Anger reveals
self-centeredness. One of the most difficult lessons
to learn is to stop trying
to gain the approval of others.
To deal with anger we must come to grips with the
fact that we are not
all-powerful.
Many times anger is disgust at our own ineptitude.
We need to determine why we're angry.
Blocked goals are the most common causes of anger,
and anger over
blocked goals reveals our selfish nature. We need
to admit our
self-centeredness.
Anger imprisons some people.
Fear reveals our attitude toward personal loss.
The greater the loss, the
greater the fear. Worry, a form of fear, is preoccupation
with the possibility
that we can lose something valuable.
