Under anger lies pain or fear — ask what's the original emotion.

When your emotion doesn't serve the situation, do the opposite of what it pushes you to.

Stop, take a breath, observe, proceed mindfully — four seconds save a decision.

Replace rigid "should" with flexible "prefer", lift pressure on yourself and others.

Write what your dearest friend would say in your worst moment.

Write a full angry letter uncensored, then destroy it — you're freed.

5 min run, pillow punch, towel scream — body cleans.

Invent at least three plausible reasons for a behavior that upset you, before you judge.

In anger, dissect: Antecedent → Belief → Consequence.

Don't ask "do we need another hire?" — ask "if we started today with nobody, who'd we hire first?".
