Anger is one of our worst enemies. When you are angry you feel very very strong. And most often people break valuable things, including glass-wares, and relationships.
But with a very simple tip, anger can be converted into a very powerful productivity tool.
It’s simple.
You are angry with someone. Instead of bashing the one you are angry at, you control your emotions. And you do something productive.
Done. You were so concentrated at the cause of anger that the whole concentration was transferred to what you did instead. And so you did it better than how you would have done normally. And by the time you finished doing it, you are no more angry.
For example, this post was written and published in about 10 minutes in which I was really angry. And I’m really happy right now, because I suddenly got almost 3 weeks worth of content to write on.
So, the next time you feel angry, instead of blowing your top, convert the heat into work.
Subscribe to my Substack Newsletter
As you might have noticed, social media these days prioritize engagement and doesn’t really let people build relationship with an audience. One way to take back some control is to directly be connected to your favorite authors, artists, etc through e-mail. And that’s what subscribing to my newsletter is about, too. I’m intentionally staying away from substack (which is susceptible to enshittification), and self-hosting the newsletter. What that means is also that the mails could land in spam. So, please press “Not spam” if they do end up in spam. Thank you!

That was a brilliant suggestion. Indeed, if all the people follow that it would lessen the number of fights and destruction. And who knows more creative persons would be there 🙂
