There are days you wake up feeling psyched and bursting with energy, then someone from nowhere does something that leaves you in rage. Such raw emotions have lead millions of people into the most atrocious acts. How do you avoid being emotional or even deal with the feelings when they are about to have the best of you?
The simplest and easiest way to deal with rage is to take a deep breath. This can be done on spot and spontaneously. It gives you the precious delay that will stop you from taking an action that you will regret for the rest of your life. You will also be buying time to help you view the issue from a better perspective.
Consider the circumstances and reasons that would have caused the offender to act the way he or she did. Most nasty reactions arise from the thought that you have been offended. Unfortunately, you have no idea why the person acted that way. Take a minute to evaluate the situation. You might realize that your reaction or action would have been similar in the prevailing circumstances.
Depart from the scene. This gives you the space to clean your thoughts and clear the mind over the situation at hand. Remaining at the scene means that your mind continues to be toxic. Negative feelings will boil to an uncontrollable point. Take a break and your reaction will not be as damaging as when you remain at the scene.
Take control of what you think and especially how you process the situation. Actions taken and the thoughts that continue to persist will affect your reaction. If they continue being negative, the action taken will also be negative. Exercise restraint, listen and dialogue on the best way forward. This needs to be a habit so that you can master and apply it instinctively.
Tap into controlled behavior. This requires you to divorce yourself from the situation and reset to character. Some reactions will not represent your character. It takes practice to achieve this. The approach is similar to being the bigger-man in an argument. Avoid being the kind of person who would react to everything negatively.
Name, acknowledge and accept the feelings as well as their negative impact in your life. The feelings include being hurt, fear, anger and such manifestations. When the feelings have been identified, you will be conscious of negative reactions that could come out of these feelings. This consciousness helps you to manage the situation better.
Soothe yourself. Each person has a way of calming his or her senses down. It could be by humming a song, taking a walk, tapping on the desk, watching the horizon or even talking to someone. The technique buys time and also helps you avoid drastic and regrettable actions. It takes practice and a lot of restraint to take control of your emotions.
A support system will help you manage the boiling rage. This could be a friend, relative, senior, colleague or people in your network. They offer a platform to bounce-off the anger and cool down before taking a regrettable step.
