Anger Management

Can Anger Actually Help You Succeed?

⚡ “Anger isn’t the enemy—it’s fuel.” Here’s the thing: anger gets a bad rap. Society tells us to suppress it, bury it, pretend it doesn’t exist. But anger, when used the right way, is outrageously powerful. If it’s bottled up as resentment until you explode? That’s poison. But if it’s channeled into action—reading that extra chapter, pushing through that workout, chasing that next goal—it becomes fuel. And once you’ve accomplished the thing, the anger subsides, because it’s been used, not wasted. Biology backs this up. Men have higher testosterone than estrogen, and testosterone literally wires our nervous system toward aggression, drive, and protection. It’s not “toxic,” it’s nature. If someone broke into your house, even the most passive person would step up to defend their child. That instinct is built-in for survival. For men, it’s just closer to the surface. The problem isn’t anger—it’s misuse. Suppressed anger festers into toxicity. Directed anger builds strength, protection, and progress. 👉 So maybe toxic masculinity isn’t about aggression existing—it’s about aggression without aim. 💬 Question for you: How do you channel anger in a healthy way?
