Confrontation, Business, and "why So Potent?"

Now that I have accustomed myself to keeping my emotions in the conscious part of my mind, I feel it is time to bring this vision to others. There are so many people that I witness losing control, it is time to try to make a difference. I am going to begin confronting people to try to help them realize what I have. People need to learn self-control. There is a difference between being enthusiastic and competitive compared to constantly getting angry and putting yourself down. That is a tough spot to put yourself in, and often takes valuable time to pick yourself back up.

Additionally, as a probable future businessman, this control is extremely valuable. From a production standpoint, people with clear minds and strong wills are going to generate ideas and be on task much more than those with a short fuse who get easily rattled. I hope to one day be seen as a great leader by those around and below me (in solely a job-position sense), and this will be made possible by my self control and ability to teach and be taught by those around me. Bosses who work well with their employees will make for a much more positive working environment, and the employees will be more inclined to listen and do what they are told.

This erratic kind of behavior that I see so often makes me wonder why anger is such a potent emotion. It seems like people succumb to anger when they have nothing else to turn to. If they do not know how to handle a situation correctly, they often simply get mad as a coping mechanism, blaming others for anything that went wrong or possibly becoming dangerous to those around them. Additionally, life can just simply be frustrating. It is full of adversity and obstacles, and if you do not have a strong will, then anger can easily start to control your life if you give up after initial failure. On that topic, failure is one of the hardest things to cope with. It is so easy to give up hope after failure and just simply be negative about the whole experience. Much more difficult, but much more constructive, is to instead take failures as an opportunity to learn and adjust so that next time will bring about success.
