A Personal Plan for Anger Management

A hot button is an issue that has the potential to trigger anger, usually in relation to how it affects someone. Though some people might think of their hot buttons as a flaw or something they should be able to get over quickly, understanding your personal set of triggers can actually help you more effectively deal with them and prevent any unnecessary escalation. The first step towards identifying one’s own individual hot topics is simply paying attention; once you notice when these issues come up for both yourself and others around you, start asking questions about what causes the reaction from each person involved so far.
