Friday, May 9, 2008Freedom from angerAcknowledge your anger, feel it fully, allow it to be, and then quickly move beyond it. Instead of fighting against your anger or letting it control you, choose to experience it and then let it go.When you hold on to anger, it drags you down. By allowing and then quickly dropping the anger, you put yourself in a powerful position to deal with whatever brought about that anger. Anger can get your attention and get you going. Yet if you hold it for long it will surely hold you back. Sometimes your anger may be valid and other times it may not. Whether it is valid or not, anger almost always makes you much less effective and hinders your ability to move forward. Anger often perpetuates and strengthens those very things at which it is directed. So the best strategy is to first let it be and then let it go. Decide to be strong and effective, to put your energy into moving forward. Drop the anger and raise yourself to a higher level of positive control and effectiveness. -- Ralph Marston
