Quote by Harriet Goldhor Lerner, The Danc
Anger is a tool for change when it challenges us to become more of an expert on the self and less of an expert on others. . . .If, however, we do not use our anger to define ourselves clearly in every important relationship we are in--and manage our feelings as they arise--no one else will assume this responsibility for us.
Summary
This quote suggests that anger can act as a catalyst for personal growth and transformation when it encourages us to focus on understanding ourselves better instead of directing it towards others. By using anger as a means to define our own boundaries and manage our emotions, we take ownership of our lives and relationships. It emphasizes the importance of not letting others dictate how we express anger or handle our emotions, stressing that it is our own responsibility to assert ourselves and manage our feelings in a constructive way.
