again. this thread has nothing to do with decision making. decisions is a decision. anger is an emotion.

We
get what we
focus on.
In sports you can focus on
defeating every opponent, or on
wining every time. In my opinion, considering the
same emotional intensities, the latter one will bring you more wins, and more satisfaction, more confidence, ...
It is an
important difference if you focus on
defeating or on
winning. For subconscious it doesn't matter that defeating somebody or winning the competition is the same.
I know that in sports and other fields of activity, the consensus wisdom is to push for hating your opponent. I believe that to be misguided.
The misapprehension comes from the fact that negative emotions like anger, hate, fear are more instinctual and people believe that they can get more intense, but, in my opinion, in the end they turn against the one who experiences them.
(
Anger >>>
Bliss) it may happen, but only by chance. Eventually (
Anger >>>
ANGER).
There are all those stories of sages that got self-realized as a consequence of a great fear, pain, or such (Ramana, ...). That is the justification for their mean behavior toward seekers, to "help" them. I believe it is misguided.
Don't focus on alleviating
suffering, but on bringing
happiness, well-being! Don't hate
war, but love
peace!
