What's funny, and stupid, is that they teach kids and young adults how to not be angry. "Don't get angry", but they don't teach them how to harness their anger and use it productively. When your pissed, you work hard af, but you have to be in that zone.

Anger is such a good feeling. It's like dopamine and serotonin are involved in a way that makes it rewarding and feel good. It's good to be angry when your brain wants to be. Just dont get angry around other people or break shit when you're angry and it's super healthy for you
