experiment with anger.

 This post is in two parts. The first will discuss my interpretation of the justified anger debate and the other will be a free flow of ideas regarding the emotion of anger. To start lets examine how anger shows up. For me it's energy in the middle region and spread throughout the body. It's thoughts of events that replay over and over again. It's the debate you have in your head of wrongness and rightness. You will meticulously retrieve every piece of information you can remember to change the story and "win" the argument with yourself. It's restlessness, inability to sleep that can spiral into motivational energy. The type of energy you want at the beginning of a soccer match. The type that gets you so hyped you don't give a shit what anyone else does or says you are going to be flowing. The ladder is the anger I want to channel instead of this somewhat uncontrolled and inconsistent rage I feel towards recent events.  I got a little off topic so lets go ...

date and job

 I've made this correlation before but I think that getting a girlfriend and landing a job are very similar things. I feel like both require a lot of trust that the others is it in for the right reasons. You need to think about the long term commitment of both. 

Both make me nervous, I just want to do a good job, be a good boyfriend, and create wealth and connection. I don't want to do it wrong and get used at my job or be in a relationship that only takes and never gives. I tend to just stumble into things and check out how they go and hope that I'm not missing obvious red flags.
