Controlling Your Anger

Male Anger Get’s Viewed Under The Microscope Of Society

The focus behind learning how to Control Your Anger is to empower you with the knowledge of why anger occurs and equip you with the correct solutions to deal with this powerful emotion.

As a man, there’s never been a more important time to learn self-control and patience. Everything men do is under the microscope because there are many ideologues who hate you just for being a man and want to find every single thing men do that is bad an report it at large. There is no respite.

It’s no secret that I’m critical of feminism and have written at length about the ways in which feminists and their lap dogs seek to vilify and mock men at every opportunity.

This only gives us more reason to stand tall and lead by example. Showing the world what strong, men are capable of.

You Anger Has Nothing To Do With Testosterone

There’s a lot of garbage going around about how high testosterone men are aggressive but this is nonsense. Some of the strongest, most in control-of-their-temper human beings are males with very high testosterone levels.

The fact is, a man who has a bad temper is stronger and far more capable of damage than a female (to a degree). For this reason, it’s easy to see how it comes to attention.

Understanding your anger is a key focal point in enabling one to learn how to manage their anger.

Some people of course seem to have larger quantities than others, so by using the examples of more passive people and taking control of this weakness, we can learn to exercise responsibility by retraining our focus.

There is no doubt – Anger is dangerous and without a measure of control, some people are a safety concern to themselves and others.

It’s Different For Every Man

If you feel that your anger is a risk factor, or you just want a more passive approach to living, controlling your anger can help guide you to a safer path. If ever there was a time where the whole “personal development” idea was relevant it would be in self help anger control.

Some men have lifestyles that are high conflict and learn conflict resolution as part of the course. Some males simply lack social aptitude and become reticent men whom never seek to be front and center.

There in no one size fits all approach to controlling your temper.

Understanding Anger Laterally

From a lateral viewpoint, the answer is often an eye opener for many.

What if you were told your anger had nothing to do with the world around you, your environment or the actions of others?

Well, that is exactly how it is. Your anger is purely an inability (or disability) to react to your environment with a socially acceptable response system. The problem is entirely yours – It is all you and therefor is the responsibility of yourself to control and harness entirely without blame for others or the world around you.

Fortunately you can take solace in the fact that there are many that suffer from the anger affliction and yet control it appropriately. There is also a number of things you can learn from the the actions of those with a more passive approach to living – We can all learn a lot from those fortunate others.

A Poor Temper & Expectations

An ill tempered person reacts with anger often towards a situation because of fear and a high expectation of the probability of events. Either they react with anger due to a constant disappointment, because their expectations are never met , or they react to the fear of an action or event with anger as a protection mechanism.

A person with low expectations of probabilities often have an easier time reacting to the world around them without exhibiting such bad tempered reactions because they are not set up for constant disappointment.

Then there is the issue of self control – No matter how you assess it, a lack of self control is an innate lack of discipline and you must take responsibility for this before you can move forward.

Self Control

Some people seem to have self control in bucket loads, while others appear to have a complete lack of it. Fortunately there is no secret (which is actually fantastic), as the key to exercising control over your anger is all in your discipline and the level at which you respect the value of self control.

When you see personal control as a extremely valuable commodity it opens your eyes to a new paradigm of possibility. Those who actively seek to enhance this very personal aspect of their lives can build an internal strength that makes the weakness of anger seem exposed.

I believe men have the potential for great self control and that I care about men in society. But I think each man needs to step up and take responsibility for his actions before seeking to blame others for his responses.

Your intention to learn ways of controlling your anger is a vital first step. With the intent and the knowledge comes a base, but the discipline is by far the hardest and not surprisingly the most important factor in controlling your anger in the long term.

Discipline

This is where I think men can really shine. I believe males are taught discipline more than females. From very early years men are told they must accept society norms that allow women to treat them in a way in which would never be allowed should it ever be reciprocated.

She can hit you, slap you, and call you names and it’s all good. But you dare not retaliate for fear of a real retribution that she would simply not face.

This can actually build strength in men and while it may seem unfair, in many ways it does you no harm in removing weakness.

Weakness and excessive anger go hand in hand. At some point one must be aware of this weakness and to a point be ashamed of this personal trait. Shame is a heavy word but in this case it is a self evaluating tool that can actually do some good.

By refusing to hold bad temper as an acceptable trait an ill tempered person can then proceed to take the appropriate measures to ensure they develop a more disciplined approach to the world.

At the core of discipline is usually a desire and if your desire to control your temper is strong then you can build up a habit of making more passive responses to disappointing circumstances, but if your desire is weak and you don’t accept the responsibility as yours alone then change will be next to impossible and your discipline will be found waning.

Desire – Responsibility – Necessity

By taking ownership of your faults and understanding the absolute necessity to change, you can begin to develop a reactionary process that you can be proud of.

Many bad tempered, aggressive people desire to be like the passive people who seem to have such a calm and collected response mechanism, by holding these passive people as role models you can seek to emulate their behavior and train yourself to take a more passive course of reaction.

Anger management control starts with the desire to make a change.

In Conclusion

Once you have decided learn how to control your anger, you can now begin the next step in the journey to self control.

Living without anger is empowering. Anger can destroy the lives and happiness of many people around you including your own. A bad temper can socially ostracize you from friends and families, not to mention prevent new relationships from developing.

Increase you own personal happiness by taking control – We wish you success.
