and that some people were just born with the temperament
to get angrier faster than others.
That statement is only half right.
Anger is an instinctive response.
We respond to an affront with anger essentially instantaneously -
much too quickly for conscious thought to be called upon.
But the instinct of the anger response
can be trained through conscious repetition,
visualization, and coaching.
Visualization is seeing the event
we desire to master in our mind's eye.

to maintain it is really difficult,
because you are doing something against nature.

"This is natural," explained the teacher.

The student showed the shattered cup, saying,
"It was time for your cup to die."
