What if the anger you’ve been told to suppress is actually the key to getting everything you want?

In I’m Not F*cking Angry!, Dr. Mitch Abrams, sport psychologist, prison chief psychologist, and unapologetic truth-teller, rips apart the myths about anger and shows you how to turn it into your most powerful tool. Drawing on decades of work with professional athletes, high-power executives, attorneys, and physicians, as well as some of the most dangerous inmates in America, Dr. Abrams delivers a no-BS guide to understanding your emotions, channeling your aggression, and mastering the art of self-control without losing your edge.

This is not about “calming down” or pretending you are not pissed off. It is about adjusting your flame so you can dominate in high-pressure moments, protect yourself when it counts, and stop sabotaging your own success.

• Spot the difference between healthy aggression and destructive rage

• Recognize your triggers before they control you
• Build unshakable mental toughness in sports, business, and life
