easy for us to
understand why
we’re angry and
sometimes we
have to work
harder to find out
why we’re angry
5. Response to Anger
• Sometimes waiting
to respond is a
good idea
but
• avoiding the
causes of your
anger will usually
cause more
problems…for you!
People who fly into a rage always
make a bad landing.
-- Will Rogers
The greatest remedy for anger is delay.
-- Seneca.
6. So what do I do?
Anger, if not
restrained, is
frequently more
hurtful to us than
the injury that
provokes it.
-- Seneca.
7. Staying angry can make you
feel worse!
Holding on to
anger is like
grasping a hot coal
with the intent of
throwing it at
someone else;
you are the one
who gets burned.
-- Buddha.
8. Find ways to return to good
feelings
• Think about how you
can make the
situation better.
• Look for ways to
resolve the problem
for the future.
• Find ways to feel
good again!
