Anger doesn’t help you see clearly. It just makes you feel like you are.

REFLECTION
Anger arrives with certainty attached, which is the dangerous part. It narrows everything to a single obvious story where you are right and someone is at fault, and that clarity feels like insight rather than like narrowing. Sharpness and accuracy are different things. You are seeing less, more intensely.
When you are furious and completely sure, make that the reason to wait. Do not send the message, do not make the decision. Come back in a day and check whether the obvious story still looks obvious once the heat has gone out of it.
What did you feel certain about while you were angry?
