Go Ahead…Get Angry!!

http://cathieheath.com

We all want to be happy, joyful, fulfilled, successful, etc.

It seems everywhere you look, people are creating life maps
and vision boards, spending time meditating, journaling and
affirming, reading books and listening to CD’s…

It’s become such an OBSESSION that self-improvement has
become a multi-TRILLION dollar industry!
(that’s trillion with a “T”)

There’s so much talk about positive thinking and attitudes
these days, that many people seem to have come to the
conclusion that there’s something really BAD or WRONG when
they feel anger.

NOTHING could be further from the truth!!

Don’t get me wrong, I firmly believe that thinking
positively and maintaining a positive attitude are
ESSENTIAL to success in life.

And all that stuff I talked about up there?

The meditating, journaling, affirming and envisioning?

I do that stuff, too!!

But I think that anger, in and of itself, has been
misunderstood and gotten a “bad rap” in general.

You may find this hard to believe, but anger, especially
anger with yourself, can actually be a POSITIVE FORCE
in your life.

And hopefully, by the time you’re done reading this article,
you’ll have a better understanding of what I mean.

Emotions Are Energy

We all come to this planet with a complete set of emotions
totally functional and ready to go!

Picture an infant, wide eyed and smiling sweetly at you…
then all red-faced and screaming its head off!

Yup, we arrive fully equipped alright!!

What many people don’t realize is ALL the emotions we feel
are pure energy.

They’re our very own, PERSONAL energy source.

Think about it…when we’re excited about something, it
“energizes” us making it difficult for us to sleep. And
when an intense emotional experience is over, we feel tired,
drained and sapped of energy.

And just like love, joy, fear, excitement and all the other
emotions we humans have, anger is an emotion, which means
it’s energy, too.

And as with any energy source, it can be channeled either
positively or negatively.

USE Your Anger

The important thing to remember is not to BE anger, but
to use its energy to fuel your actions instead.

What do I mean?

Let’s say you’re not happy with your present circumstances.

Maybe you want to be making more money, recruiting more
team members or selling more products.

If that dissatisfaction continues, it can (and often does)
turn into anger.

So what do you DO?

Stay ticked off and complain?

Start blaming and bad-mouthing others like your teachers,
team, upline or company?

Maybe even quit?

OR…

USE that anger you’re feeling as an energy source to continue
pushing you forward?

You can channel the energy from your anger to become more laser
focused and determined than ever.

It’s a matter of recognizing your ability to change your
present situation, harnessing the energy of your anger and
DOING something about it.

Three Simple Steps

There’s really nothing mystical about channeling your anger
(or any emotion, for that matter). Just follow these simple steps:

Identify your anger. What precisely are you angry about?
Be as detailed with yourself as you possibly can. You’ll want to
write this down, by the way.

Look for ways that you can change the situation. Maybe
you’d enroll more people if you made more phone calls or sell
more products by connecting with more people in your niche
market.  The point here is to look for something that YOU can
do to change the situation.

Do it. Sounds simple because it is. Do what it is you know
you need to do to change the situation. Then, when you begin
slacking off (and you will), remember how angry you felt. You
might want to read what you wrote in step one. Let yourself
re-experience the feeling for a moment…then with renewed
energy, get back to it!

Above all, remember that anger is a normal, natural emotion
that EVERYONE has from time to time and feeling angry doesn’t
mean you’re “bad”.

It’s what you DO with it that matters.

So go ahead, GET ANGRY…and use it as fuel to change your life!!!
