Anger

Anger can destroy trust and instill fear.

There will be lots of things in life that affect us emotionally. Some make us happy, sad, confused. Some even excite us. But what about anger?

Anger can set us back. In the workplace it can ruin opportunity, and show volatility in your ability to separate logic from emotion and keep a clear head while working with others. In relationships it can set you up to express feelings and speak words that set long-term relationships back years, or ruin rapport you’ve built over time.

Anger can destroy trust and instill fear, causing others to find you unapproachable — which in turn places more obstacles in the way of your goals, hindering opportunity and causing others to overlook your efforts.

Anger. Will it help?
