(1.) The easiest negative emotion to channel into productivity.
While depression is like a static pond that sinks into the earth and grows mold, anger is like boating down rapids. The ride can be a bit bumpy, (perilous even, if it turns to rage) but you’ve got enough power in that water current…you’ll sure as shit get somewhere.
The trick is being able to paddle (channel your anger), otherwise that energy will take you somewhere quick you don’t want to go, (like a rapid that pushes you overboard and makes you hit your head on a rock).
(2.) The expectation that something in this world should be better than it currently is, and someone else is responsible for why it’s not.
(3.) When hope makes a peace treaty with other negative emotions (such as grief, fear, despair, shame), by assigning them two targets…something or someone to blame, and something to do about it. (The something to do about it doesn’t have to be direct (such as plotting revenge). It can also involve self-actualization or the betterment of oneself /others).

I'd rather deal with anger than depression or sadness any day of the week. Contrary to the suffering artist myth, most manifestations of suffering do not yield productivity.

Get the Anger mug.when you get so mad you start to burn like an oil refinery in a thunderstorm.
or a tiger on fire. it is the ultimate definition of anger and rage, so much so that you begin breaking walls,
rapidly spouting insults, and turn fully red.

Get the Major anger issues mug.When you overreact to something, but only because your background anger has been building for weeks.
