“Behind the Mask” - Anger Management in the Workplace.
Anger is an 'acquired' emotion. Many psychologists call it a secondary emotion, because it is usually triggered by a primary emotion such as fear or pain.
We are born with primary emotions, which we feel instantly and instinctively. However, anger is triggered by how we 'interpret' the situation. In other words, we have to think in order to get angry.
Thus if we want to understand anger, we must look beyond the 'situation'. We need to evaluate our beliefs and reactions.
Often it is our way of thinking that 'validates' an angry response. We need to reframe our perceptions in order to control anger. We need to be proactive, instead of being reactive.
If you fight anger with denial, it will become your enemy.
But if you accept anger with understanding, it will become your friend.
