  1. The desire to make positive changes: “Nothing is easy for the unwilling.” An important first step is being prepared to acknowledge that you experience anger most of the time and to comprehend how it affects your quality of life. We are able to glimpse exciting options when we are willing. Make a commitment to bettering yourself; this will empower you and give you the strength and will to bring about greater improvement in yourself. Without successfully completing this step, the ones that follow will be ineffective or useless.
  2. “Be Aware” of what makes you angry: Try maintaining a “Anger Thought Monitoring Record” in your diary to keep track of your repeated hateful thoughts, pictures, or recollections. For instance, you could have differing opinions when your boss criticizes you, at home, in traffic, or in a toxic relationship. Record as many furious memories and thoughts as you can on a regular basis. You can also rate your level of anger on a scale of 1 to 10, with 1 being the angriest. Understanding the connection among ideas, feelings, and behaviors will help you comprehend how anger functions and provide light on the “why” side of your anger.
  3. Objectively discuss it with a respectable and beloved friend or family member: Recommendations from individuals you value and respect may have a significant impact. The majority of the time, your wrath may be motivated by an underlying bad emotion such as sadness, sadness, discontent, frustration, humiliation, guilt, or hate.
  4. Avoid playing the victim: Playing the victim gets us nowhere near a solution and just makes the situation worse. It helps someone grow, enhances attention and clarity, helps with education, and allows one to accept self-responsibility and words, to name a few advantages of avoiding blame games. It also saves a tonne of time and energy.
  5. Mindfulness: Understanding physiological changes brought on by anger, in addition to being aware of your ideas, may be quite helpful. If you can, grab a seat and spend two to five minutes focusing on your breath, heart rate, clinched fists and jaws, and any unpleasant feelings in your stomach, chest, or face. More than you can, keep being present with your feelings. Use of the terms “never,” “should,” or “must” should be avoided since they add pressure.
