#STEEMGIGS: (TIL - Till I Learned ) - CONTROL YOUR ANGER!!

WHAT IS ANGER?:

Anger refers to a strong feeling of displeasure, hostility or antagonism towards someone or something, usually combined with an urge to harm.

Anger is a natural phenomenon so it is natural for anyone to get angry. Even God gets angry at times. In fact, if you have never gotten angry or be angered before in life, you need to see a doctor because it is not normal. This does not mean that you should get angry at every slightest thing, neither should you be easily angered.

The problem now is not getting angry since we have seen that it is okay for one to be angry. But the issue now is what you do when you are angry. As seen in the definition of anger, we see that the main aim of anger is to cause someone or something to harm the other. There is therefore a great possibility of killing someone, beating someone or brutaliziing someone when you are being angered, since that's the main goal of anger.

Over the years, I have come to see that there's a great need for us all to learn how to control ourselves when in an angry mood. Many people let anger control them whenever there are in such mood and the result of that isn't usually adorable. Many have killed people they never had in mind to kill just because they were angry. Still in the issue of anger controlling people, husbands have killed their wives and vice versa.

Most of the evils and havoc in the society today is as a result of our failing to control ourselves when angry. The wars going on in the world today started as a result of a nation being angered by the other. So there's really a great need for us to manage and control our anger. We should not for any reason let anger get the best part of us. Some of us have seen several good things we would have done for our brothers and sisters but we fail to do it simply because we bear grudges against them.

It is okay to get angry but never let anger rule you.

How about the things we say? Many of us during the course of being angry have said painful and hurting stuffs to the other fellow. Many of us have said things we were not proud of thereafter. We also tend to render insolent words and abusive words on people out of anger.

Poor management of anger have cost many fortunes. Lack of control over ourselves when in an angry mood have made us say and do despicable things. We have let anger get the best part of us and as a result our eyes have blinded towards the good we would have rendered.

In controlling anger, we have various ways depending on your temperament and your kind of person.

There isn't any standard method or way of controlling anger. Using myself as an example, I discover that when ever I am angry, I tend to talk too much which is not good. It is not good in the sense that I may say so many hurting and abusing stuffs during my course of displaying anger.

So the method I applied to myself which have been working effectively for me is simply "walking away and keeping mute".

Therefore, anytime someone gets me upset, I simply walk away and keep silent. I go to anywhere that will facilitate the changing of my mood. By so doing, I have controlled my anger.

This method might not work for you but just as our brother Paul would say "I beseech you brethren and steemians to get to know yourself, know the approach that will help you control your anger and apply it. By so doing, we will live peacefully and maturedly.

You could add your own approach for others to learn and benefit from.

DON'T LET ANGER RULE YOU; CONTROL YOUR ANGER! !
