Kanara Entrepreneurs 16th Webinar is titled ‘Keeping Your Cool’
*Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else, you are the one who gets burned – Buddha*
Anger is a ‘natural’ emotion that everyone experiences in all areas of their lives whether it is at home, at the office or sometimes, even with close friends or relatives. Anger leads to stress which can be an incredibly damaging force to the body and mind, placing limitations on what you can accomplish in both your personal & professional life. In a lot of instances, this has cost people their jobs, personal relationships, and their lives have spiraled out of control.
The good news is that anger can be controlled and even limited. In this upcoming webinar, you will learn how to identify your anger triggers and constructive approaches to manage it effectively. This webinar will also cover some of the proven techniques in controlling anger, and ways of responding to an anger-provoking situation.
Our speaker *Mr. Ronald Olivera* does not claim to be a person as cool as a cucumber but is continuously perfecting the process to master the art of controlling anger. Our anchor, *Ms. Desma D’Souza* is a personal growth junkie and over the past 5 years, has learnt how to manage her negative emotions with ease. So, we will have an enlightening discussion between a person who is an angry bird but trying to control his anger and a person who is cool, calm and composed.
