I gave up anger ~20 years ago, and it's maybe the best thing I've ever done. I'm not claiming it's easy or that my way is universal, but this worked for me: - Like anyone else alive, I get momentarily angry. The important things are (1) don't hold on to it, and (2) remember that being angry is being stupid, so don't do anything irreversible while raged up. There is plenty time later to burn everything down, if that really needs to happen. - It's very important to accept reality. Accepting something doesn't mean that you love it. It means more "act as if it's true". - There is this myth that you have to be angry to accomplish change. This is just wrong. You accomplish a lot more with a rational clear mind than blinded by rage.
