160: Overcoming Anger

Where does anger come from? Do you know someone who is angry constantly? Maybe it's you. How is anger created? What is it? Anger is coming from a base of dishonesty, irresponsibility, and pride. Somewhere with the person who is angry, somewhere in their life, they are choosing irresponsibility, dishonesty and pride or a lacking of willing to be humble.

Anger comes from living in a place of victim where: "I'm not responsible for the things going on around me," "Life should be easier," "Life should be better to me," and "I don't deserve any of this." So they are not willing to be vulnerable and they live in a state of drama where they are blaming things, circumstances, places and especially people.

We know this because anger on the other end is peace, is calm, is connection. Where does that come from? How can I build a life of peace and calm? I want to feel connected. Well, the only way you can have that is if you're living a base of being Honest, Responsible and Humble. It means: "I surrender" and "I understand and I accept that I live in a world where 'bad things happen' and live in a world where I am uncomfortable and there is pain and there's sabotage going on" and it's a willingness to roll with the punches. That's where peace comes from.

So if you want to get out of anger, if you want to learn to overcome these irritable feelings...keep listening. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
