At the intersection of anger and passion

We often confuse anger with passion. We observe great athletes lose their composure and we wrongly equate anger with passion.Passion seems to be a byproduct of intense and angry people, but it's not.

In reality anger is a passion inhibitor. Anger prevents group achievement and stymies enduring greatness. Anger is selfish and barricades an angry person into single-option solutions.

Passion, the drive to win or a burning desire to excel, is enlarged by love. Passionate persons accomplish bigger desires, with less effort by curtailing anger and promoting love.

In what situations do you let anger stymie your passion?

What can you gain from replacing your anger with love?
