<div class="topicTextNotes"><div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>Triggering anger</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger happens when
I am frustrated from achieving my goals. This may be a repeated thing,
with each occurrence stoking the anger I am repressing until I cannot hold it in any more.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger is often
an response to an insult to me or my friends. It is thus a defending action against
an attack on my identity.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger is generally
past-focused. That is, we are more often angry at things that have already
happened. Even when I am angry about the future, it often is triggered by my putting myself into
further into the future and looking back at a 'future perfect' event that 'has happened'.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>The power of
anger</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger can be a
very powerful way of getting what you want, especially in the short term.
Indeed, this is one of the key reasons why it exists. When a chimpanzee displays anger, it is
signalling to others that the subject in hand is very important to it, and it is ready to fight for
it.
Unless other chimpanzees are prepared to duel, maybe to the death, then they are more likely
to back down.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger is also the
last response of a cornered victim, and many a mild- mannered person has
turned into a raging hulk when they feel there is no alternative. The surprise they create in their
oppressors is often so great it gives them the winning hand.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger also gives
a general power signal that does not need to be used that often, as other
peace-loving people will generally tend to back down before a person they know has a
tendency to anger. A 'look' is often all it takes.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger can also
be a positive long-term energiser, such as when a teenager decides to 'show' his
parents that he is not the lazy slob they seem to think he is.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>The hazard of
anger</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Although there
are short-term gains to be had with anger, there are also a number of hazards.
First, your bluff may be called and you can get into losing battles. A reason for this is that as
anger boils over into rage you can easily lose all judgement and control and hence take on an
opponent who can easily give you a good pasting (or hurt someone you do not want to hurt).</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Anger and the effective
attack (physical or psychological) can also gain you enemies. Even
someone you have beaten and who now seems to be your friend is probably waiting for the
moment when they can safely take their revenge.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="5"><span style="font-size:18pt"><b>Displacement</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">As anger is so
hazardous, we often find other ways to vent it, displaced either in time or
location. For example a person who is frustrated at work may be angry with their family, or
perhaps will avoid this by going for a run immediately when they get home.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Displacement is
a huge source of continued human strife, as we pass on our anger to other
people, who do likewise.</span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="6"><span style="font-size:24pt"><b>So what?</b></span></font><span></span></div>
<div align="left"><font face="Times New Roman" size="3"><span style="font-size:12pt">Avoid arousing
the anger of people who can damage you. You can, however, use their anger.
One way is to redirect it at other people. Another approach is to let them get angry and then
play the hurt party. When they cool down they will need to apologies and you can ask for what
you really want from them as a condition for forgiveness.</span></font><span></span></div></div>
