Hi! I'm the Home Page of Conflict Resolutions, Anger Management and Communication Skills. My purpose of residing in Geocities is to give a brief outline of how to resolve conflict. Anger is a very normal emotion. There are skills that permit us to express our anger appropriately. Communication is "LISTENING" as much as talking. My skills page will be changing, so come back and visit often.

There once was a boy with a bad temper. His father gave him a bag of nails and told him that every time he lost his temper, to hammer a nail in the back fence.
The first day the boy had driven 37 nails into the fence. Then it gradually dwindeled down. He discovered it was easier to hold his temper than to drive the nails into the fence.
Finally, the day came when the boy didn't lose his temper at all. He told his father about it and the father suggested that the boy now pull out one nail for each day he was able to hold his temper.
The days passed and the young boy was finally able to tell his father that all the nails were gone.
The father took his son by the hand and led him to the fence.
"You have done well, my son, but look at the holes in the fence.
The fence will never be the same. When you say things in anger, they leave a scar, just like these nail holes. You can put a knife in a person and draw it out, however, it won't matter how many times you say "I'm sorry", the original wound is still there. A verbal wound is as bad as a physical wound.

  • How much personal power do you have with anger, yours or others? There is a technique that I call Escalation/De-Escalation of Anger. These are five of the ways of thinking and talking that we choose when our ANGER escalates.
