      fake news. Ive read and memorized large portions of the art of war and never came across the quote. Its apparently by an Australian nurse. However, there's a section of the book that mentions it is best to anger your opponent, for it will cloud their judgement and thus make hasty decisions. I believe a bit of insight was given at the middle of chapter 1/

    1) ANGER - The feeling of anger
    2) RAGE - your reaction to anger, or how you respond to it

    My father spent 4 years with the sole goal of driving me crazy. He wanted to break me so that the things I knew about him were just “the musings of a crazy person.” While I consider myself a strong-willed person, a child can only take so much torture. Things were very bad for me for years, as I was exactly what my father hoped to create, a crazy mess. Turns out, it was actually some real severe C-PTSD, but to my family crazy was crazy. I lost my siblings and most of my relatives, as my father can lie until you believe the sky is pink and the grass is blue. I spent many years very angry. Filled with rage. My siblings never gave me the benefit of the doubt, and I didn’t understand what I did to make my father hate me so much. These days I spend my days in nature and it helps me to release my knuckle white grip on the anger that has lived in me for so long. I hope to live without such potent anger one day. That I can forgive.

      @SuperSoundtracks 5 років тому +15

      Pretty much. If I, a random guy on the internet insulted you, why would you feel pain from that? I don't know anything about you. What I said I could have said to anyone.
      So it shouldn't have any hold over you. Yet people seem to get incredibly angry over comments, conversations with strangers etc.
      I've had back and forths with my family all my life, because at the moment of rage, I respond with fists and vinegar, cause in my mind I like to think "now they'll learn what makes me angry, and they'll stay clear of it next time". Most of the time they are confused by my reaction, and they will react with rage on their own, so you have a quick vicious cycle that spirals out of control until we either start fighting, or leave the room slamming the door.
      I've been thinking about this a lot.

I had to quit working out and became heavily depressed. That was 6 years ago. During that time I was weak, mentally and physically. I got influenced by the wrong sources and my ideology shifted to right-wing extremism. I was in the 'scene' for something like 2,5 years so it really left a scar. Luckily I was able to get back from it and think clear again. That is why I am trying to turn myself into a better person. I want to compensate for the person that I was in that time. Be kind to every kind. I am trying my best but I can't manage to get myself back to the gym, and like I said that time scarred me and left me with anger issues. I hope that I can someday get back into the ring again. Maybe that will help with controlling my anger, or atleast give me some discipline again. But thank you for your tip man, I wish you the best as well :)

      To me, its more about being honest than happy. That is the only way i can be in balance with myself, and achieve inner peace. Anger is just an expression of our love for someone or something we care about - and i dont think it is wise to reject it. We may avoid getting angry if we stop caring about whatever we care about enough to get angry over bad stuff happening to whoever/whatever we dont care about - but then we would also never get happy from the good stuff.
      Supposedly stoics avoid suffering from accepting the bad stuff in the world. Not that they dont care, but they have gotten used to it, and dont let it affect them. If everyone acts like that, we would have anarchy...

    This makes so much sense. I've lost count of the number of times I was that "foolish person." And when it comes to parents, I realized one day that they couldn't give me (as need as I was as a child) what they couldn't give themselves. And I cried, not for myself or the needy child I was, but for who my parents were until they died. In exchange, I was filled with God's grace through which I found forgiveness and was delivered from my anger, which was replaced by compassion. I have never had a more humbling experience.

      Much of what this man said I learnt myself from someone who taught me meditation. It is really good advice and is true for all emotions. Emotions are inner body experiences that most of the time we can't control. Whether we feel sad, angry, happy, lonely is dependant on our reactions to the situations around us. What we do with these feelings and what they mean to us is what we can control (just because we feel sad for example doesn't mean we have a reason to feel sad, and the same thing goes for anger)
      Because we can't choose our emotional states, it isn't something we should blame ourselves for or feel guilty about. It takes a lot of practice learning to manage emotions, but after time it becomes easier and we become happier 💜💜💜 I wish you all the best on your journey!! 💜💜💜

    Everyone has issues. At some point you learned that as a kid it's accepted to be mean sometimes. But as you grew you realized that if you want to be happy and have relationships you must learn to be a nicer person. The problem arises when people have a tough transition. Whoever's fault that is is irrelevant. It could be they dropped out of school, or maybe their parents put them in bad situations that they couldn't cope with, or maybe they were in great situations but they just had a hard time putting it into action. Regardless of how it happened, these people are hurting. As a kid the bully is the big guy with all the money and he seems to be the happiest, but as we grow we realize that the bullies are the weakest. They lack respect for themselves. They don't know how to cope with emotions and in turn release it on their loved ones. Heck, I don't think you're perfect. I'm sure that there are those days you come home and start letting loose on the people you love. Maybe I'm wrong, but unless it's a focus to work on, we all do the same on some level. Maybe not all the time, maybe not to the same extent as the"mean guy", but we do it. I learnt this from a teacher "if I see a flaw in someone else, then I possess that trait. Even if it's only a bit." And I hate to say it, but every time I remember that after I get upset at someone, I see that negative trait in myself, and it's not just on a small scale. To end this I'd like to say that there's a reason it's so hard to control yourself. Because it's worth it. If it's worth it then it will take hard work. Believe in the goal and fight. Life will get allot happier for you. Good luck :)

      @@dakota3753 no, my line of thinking is not the cause of conflict. You could argue it's the continuation of conflict but not the cause. I cannot get revenge on someone who has never wronged me because by definition that's not revenge, so the cause of conflict would be the initial wrong doing, not the revenge.
      Regardless if someone agrees or disagrees with revenge, theres nothing inaccurate about my posts. If you do not have an instigator, you do not have a retaliation (revenge).
      The other thing to take into consideration is that wrong doing needs to be punished to discourage more wrong doing. If I'm continuing to wrong innocent people, and I do not suffer consequences for it, I have no reason to stop doing harm to innocent people. Do you just expect people to wake up one day and share your empathy? Speaking of wishful thinking. Think of raising a child. When a child does something wrong they get punished. If you dont punish a child for wrong doings, they turn into spoiled brats
      But I do agree that stopping people from wanting to take revenge is wishful thinking, but if we're gonna partake in wishful thinking, why not start with wishing no one instigates the conflict to begin with thus there being no need for the revenge anyway?

      You made a wrong choice by using drugs and you have to accept forcing your body out of it maybe seek medical help to help you medically get out of it, but accept to go through hard times for 1 year. I agree with you the biggest takeaway from this video is you do not have to feel guilty about someone else making you angry even when it is your parents. Most people will never experience this, and will quickly repudiate any lack of filial piety. I do not because i understand your situation. There are parents that wrong a child by how they psychologically behave in your childhood and sometimes will never recognize it. The path out of this is to accept that these parents were not as great as we thought they were. That our life was not as lucky as we thought we were to have these parents. The anger comes from the fear of having to accept this reality, but in fact it is not a new reality, just one that we have never let surface to our conscious mind. Once you recognize that your parents had failed us long ago before the breaching point, that they were never as great as you had imagined them to be, that you had an idealized view of them, suddenly some of your deep childhood hurt start to make sense. Remember when it seemed that no matter what you did, your were never good enough for your father, that he either completely ignored you or pointed out to you how great your cousin or brother is. Maybe used to beat you and shame you. When you realize that the reason your brother never treated you with brotherly love and respect is because your father behaved that way towards you. Then you suddenly realize all your life has been an attempt to prove your worth to your parents and yet you could not change them. The guilt often comes because our focus is on the breaching point, the last straw that made you draw a line and say No more. But the breaching point is not what caused it all, it's only the culmination of past events that we buried in the subconscious. Once you realize this is who your parents are not who you think they were, then you cannot be angry anymore, but it will lift a weight off you. Your life was less lucky than you thought you were, you cannot be angry with fate. You cannot be angry at someone for being who they are because you were overestimating them, it's not that they misbehaved but that they were never as good as you imagined or wanted them to be. This is a topic rarely talked about, but realize that god can become a surrogate for your parent and fulfill the duty that your parents failed to fulfill. Understand that your parents may have been wronged by their own parents and are wronging you unconsciously to re-enact how they were wronged to prove to themselves that this is how they had been wronged. Or the father might think you are not his, and has only accepted and tolerated you and your mother have made him swear never to tell you. Or maybe they never had that discussion between them and certainly never will with you. My father said : " i will throw you out as soon as you are of age that i am no longer legally responsible for you." and never ever rescinded or took that back, never admitted any wrongdoing his whole life in anything anyway. But that was long long ago and he never changed his ways.
      Don't be angry, life is too short to not live happily. The breaching point is only the tipping point, even if you had avoided it to become a breaching point, it would have happened later as they denied you the true respect and love parents should give a child. if your parents had really fostered a good relation with you from childhood then they would have reversed that situation long ago and never let it happen. And there is no point in revenge because they never changed who they were, they just never were who you thought them to be. Just know that you are not alone, and that there are people who fail to be good parents but that does not mean you have to put yourself into misery for it. Find love in God, and give and receive happiness in small quantities.

    Being angry is a choice. We benefit by feeling judgmental, superior, powerful, and love empathy from others when they give us their undeviated attention. We get to minimize our part in it, magnify others and claim the victims stance. It's, what I call " the look at me syndrome."
    When I started honestly looking at myself, I would notice how I would love doing to others what I hated being done to myself. Yes, I had to admit I was the world's biggest hypocrite. Once I accepted that, I started to put more focus on myself instead of diverting my pain on others.
    I'm learning to be more loving, understanding, forgiving, and aware of my thoughts, feelings, and behavior and how they affects myself and others.
    Many times it's very humbling and rewarding. I realized that if I didn't push myself to grow, I would remain emotionally and socially immature.
    A wise older lady had counceled me when I had come to her bitching and swearing about how someone had wronged me. She said , " I see your very upset . If you were to remove the emotion and look at it for what it really was, what would you rate it from a 1 to 10. 1 being not serious and 10 being sooo serious. I thought about it and I humbly gave it a 2.
    She paused,.....
    She said, you know it's adorable when a child has a fit up to maybe 3 years old, after that it's not .
    Ouch.
    With much love.

    It’s easier than this:
    Anger is a reaction to fear. Fear is the actual emotion.
    There are times when anger is the appropriate reaction to fear - for instance when there is genuine danger about. The challenge is to determine when real danger is present and to use the jolt that fear can provide to try to make things safe again, like what happens when you are being physically attacked.
    Otherwise, train your brain to separate real danger from imagined danger so you don’t go around angry without good reason.

      I upvoted your comment, yes i've read a similar psychological analysis of anger as what you wrote in the book "never be angry again", however you skipped two key players. There is fear, anger, our limitations and the ego. When we encounter or somebody creates a situation that we cannot address to our satisfaction due to present limitations of our abilities or character, this triggers frustration. Our ego fears nothing more than having to cope with the realization that we might be less than we thought we were, which requires a phase of selt pity, and adjustment of the self. All these are damning for the ego, the ego prefers to try to force change the situation with anger instead. And you are right when in real danger, anger is the correct response for survival. This is an instinctive reaction, but when we are not in danger we must train our brain to not use anger. Coming out of a dispute you will never hear someone say, i wish i could have handled this with more anger. But it's the ego who takes over, and the ego is not really the person we are in reality. So think this is not me but my ego acting up. This anger is not a manifestation of who I am. There is no point in it.

    Well you actually left off the first stage of anger. It's the thought! The feelings come after the thought. Once we become mindful we can separate the thought from the feeling and often times we never even get to the feeling. we see the thought for what it is and we allow it to float by without attaching to it or taking it personally. When we become extremely conscious and mindful we simply don't mind what happens in life . we don't resist. Anger is resistance of what is. Mindfulness and meditation are the best ways 2 learn how to let go of anger.
