Anger can be a driving force, a possible dangerous one but one that definitely creates motivation. I think that mostly, progression/invention to make things better came out of real needs that were frustrating. Frustration creates movement, movement creates change, revenge is a means of propulsion. Only a democracy can diffuse this built up revenge that allows action, so in that essence anger is healthy in a democracy. In the end it can be frustrating on a team when the whole of it moves in the wrong direction, people want enough power to make sure things go right, if that is challenged, frustration/anger set in. If you can manage productive things out of frustration/anger, you will win at this game. David Simon stated that he is driven by a revenge type of motivation. In a talk that Simon gave to a live audience in April, 2007 at the Creative Alliance's storytelling series, Simon disclosed that he had started writing for revenge against John Carroll and Bill Marimow, the two most senior editors at The Baltimore Sun when Simon was a reporter at the paper. Simon said he had watched Carroll and Marimow "single-handedly destroy" the newspaper and that he spent over ten years trying to get back at them. Anything I've ever accomplished as a writer, as somebody doing TV, anything I've ever done in life, down to, like, cleaning up my room, has been accomplished because I was going to show people that they were fucked up, wrong, and that I was the fucking center of the universe and the sooner they got hip to that, the happier they would all be. The ego has its reasons for being part of our evolution, it is a driving force that make you believe you can be better. That is probably closely related to anger, frustration, revenge and the most important part, productively using that fuel to burn your fire of propulsion to success.
