You Can’t Get Rid of Your Anger—And That’s OK
Anger is an agitated state of mind that can easily lead to hatred and violence if unchecked. Yet I don’t believe it’s possible to get rid of anger; it is a universal emotion deeply rooted in ingrained survival reactions. My goal is to live with anger—as well as other difficult emotions—in a skillful way so it doesn’t cause harm.
How do I practice with anger in order to achieve that?
There are many types of anger. For example, there’s the anger I feel after watching or reading about social injustice. The energy of this type of anger can be helpful. Taking action requires experiencing enough outrage that I’m compelled to volunteer, protest, or support the causes that address social injustice—without allowing my indignation to erupt into violence.
Another type of anger is made up of grudges that camouflage grief. I mentor many people who carry around unending resentments at those who’ve abandoned them, whether lovers, spouses, partners, parents, or family members. What I find is that harboring such resentment creates the illusion that we can protect ourselves from ever being abandoned again.

47 years ago tonight
47 years ago tonight I waited up until midnight on a hot Chicago night to see a man walk on the moon on a black-and-white TV. As cool as that was I still don’t know if that was the most amazing thing I’ve ever seen. Maybe it’s the device that I hold in my hand right now. Maybe it was seeing the birth of five sons. I don’t know but it’s hard to let a moment like this pass without at least a nod to Neil Armstrong.

In 40 Seconds, You’ll Improve Focus And Relieve Stress With This ONE Single Trick
There’s a boatload of research that proves that being outside in nature improves your mental clarity and health. The reason is almost too obvious to even write, but here goes: Hanging in the great outdoors refreshes your senses in a way that no stale-air office ever can. The latest evidence: In a new study published in the journal Environmental Psychology, researchers found that people who simply looked at a photo of nature for only 40 seconds had improved focus and relieve stress. That’s right, they didn’t even need to go outside! (Though clearly, the effect still applies if you do.) A micro-break viewing a green, but not concrete roof city scene, can sustain attention and restore the good mental condition. Your mission: Set a timer of 40s to take a break. Finish all the green nature pictures below, or even pick the one you like to set as the desktop wallpaper.

Against all expectation, in direct contrast to what one might expect: Sunday Read
Against all expectation, in direct contrast to what one might expect of me on paper, I spent most of my teenage life in a perpetual state of anger. There I was, enjoying what can only be described as a privileged white life, with primary concerns being surfing and girls, growing up in Australia at a time when it was called “the land of plenty” (https://goo.gl/gFnbEf) and I could feel myself wanting to rage at the world, blast out at everything in sight. In the long years since I have come to not only temper that sense of anger that has never quite gone away but also step back from it sufficiently to ask: “why”? The Wikipedia definition actually provides some clues (https://goo.gl/yxHjFI). It calls anger an emotional response to a “perceived provocation or threat” and the teenage me (and later the slightly more mature and controlled adult I became) has always felt that there was a larger system at work. One that I could neither directly see nor ever hope to affect and that system ran my life. Determined my future. Defined me. In the 70s the world was locked in a state of tense détente (https://goo.gl/8Ndp27) where the steps that were being taken to reduce the possibility of a nuclear holocaust were also drawing attention to it. There was the feeling that processes were grinding away in backroom deals, decisions taken away from the public scrutiny, the fate of the world was being shaped by men who somehow felt they were more than the rest (and they weren’t).
