How to Stay Chill When Sh*t Hits the Fan The Jason Goldberg is Ruining Podcasting Podcast

Welcome back to the Jason Goldberg Is Ruining Podcasting Podcast! In this episode, Jason shares some insights on how to handle anger and how to switch from reacting to anger to creating with anger. Anger shows itself in a lot of ways but curiously there’s also a lot of ways we can deal with it. First and foremost: see the situation from a more calm perspective and then ask yourself: “Am I willing to let go of this feeling?” If the answer is positive, your mind and body will instantly start to slow down.
 
“Anger is not inherently bad and your feelings are never wrong. The challenge becomes when we think that the feeling of anger is also the most effective guide as to what we should do.” – Jason Goldberg
 
Another thing that can help us administer anger is to look at the root cause of it, and make an effort to analyze it: is it going to be this important 5 days from now? Is it going to affect me next week, next month, next year? Negative thoughts only exist in the past or future. The present moment is completely ours. At the end of the day, thoughts are just thoughts, not truths. When sh*t hits the fan, what is THE best next step that’ll help the situation?
 
“When we are being puppetered by anger, we diminish our own experience of life and we just aren’t ourselves.” – Jason Goldberg
