Monday Motivation: Understanding Anger

Here’s some great advice about understanding anger from my friend Arnfried of Be Motivated Today:

For some people anger is scary. I’m talking about people who are almost afraid to get angry. They may feel it is wrong to get “upset” or “lose control”.

But one has to understand anger. Anger is an appropriate response to injustice, crime and abuse. It is good to become angry when you see someone being unfairly treated or when there is corruption or any form of abuse.

Anger is also a natural emotion when we go through the grieving process. And any time we experience a significant loss, we may need to grieve and becoming angry at some point is ok. In fact becoming angry is NEVER wrong. Because anger is an emotion. And emotions are neither right or wrong.

It is what we do when we get angry that could be wrong, destructive, or unwise.

For Example:

  • Striking or injuring someone, in anger, is wrong.
  • Hurling verbal abuse at someone, who has done something, that has made you angry, is destructive. (People don’t make us angry. No one can make you angry. They do stuff that we get angry about. We choose to get angry. No one ‘makes us’.)
  • Making a decision to divorce when you are angry is unwise.

Being upset is OK. Losing control can be disasterous.

The best advice I can give is:
If you get angry, it’s ok. But then find a place to cool off before you confront the one that caused your anger. Try to calm down before someone becomes an innocent victim.

Be all you can be!

Monday Motivation: Benefits of Exercise

Here’s some advice from my friend Arnfried at Be Motivated Today on the benefits of exercise that I need to take myself.

I was a personal trainer for 12 years before I became a tax lien investing consultant. And for close to 20 years I’ve been a competitive weightlifter. Now I’m in my 50’s and as I’ve gotten older, and more involved in my business and my family, I’ve gotten a little lazy when it comes to workouts. Especially those aerobic workouts. But I know that I feel better and perform better when I’m physically fit. Plus I have more energy, think better and can cope better when I get my aerobic workout in or even just an abdominal workout and stretching, first thing in the morning. So now I’m making a commitment to do some form of exercise for 20-30 minutes 5 times a week, in addition to my weightlifting workouts.

How about you? Read the post from Arnfried below and decide what you’ll commit to. By the way if you need an extra push to commit to aerobic exercise think about this. Aerobic exercise increases blood flow to the brain and may help your brain cells form more new connections, which can slow down and prevent against alzheimer’s disease. Now that’s motivation, especially if your over 50 like me! Continue reading

Who you are is more important than what you do…

Goals that describe who you are or who you want to become are more motivating than goals about what you want to do or have.
