Hi, this is TheCandidConservative with today’s minute…

There’s not much you can do from a position of anger that produces a positive outcome. Take a moment and think of an exception. Anger, with very few exemptions, is a lousy force for good. It may also surprise you to know that, at its heart, anger is a sissy emotion. The mission of anger is almost always to make a cowardly run from painful emotions like fear, hurt, and/or sadness. Anytime someone is wearing an anger shield remember that beneath the bravado is weakness. Need an example – how about our President? Listen to the language and watch the eyes and posture of our Commander-in-Chief since his reelection. When he’s on the job, his whole deal is filtered through anger. Looking back in history you will find many Presidents who visited anger, but few who lived there. Those who did, like Nixon, tended to self-destruct. Don’t look now, but our reelected President is one very angry guy. His leadership success and our future will thus be very predictably impaired.

I’m Dr. Carl Mumpower and you just spent a minute with a candid conservative…
