Q: Dear Todd, is there any part of anger issues that are genetically linked or is it more of a learned behavior?

Any thoughts?Todd Answers: It can be difficult when dealing with others as two colliding realities clash.

Whenever you feel like the world is bad, whenever people are cruel, or whenever you’re just really fed up with people, I want you to look deeper at this problem than ever before. I want you to get to the core of this rot until you realize its source and its true nature. Look until understanding arises instead of frustration and shock. What you will find is that it is…
