I am getting angry over little things. I find myself extremely annoyed and frustrated with everything that is happening around me both at work and at home. I am unable to figure out what is causing the anger so I can fix or address it. I don't know if I am the problem. I am a working mother of two kids. Please can you help?

Ans: Dear Anonymous,
Possible reasons for getting upset, angry, sad, disappointed:
1. Having unrealistic expectations from oneself and/or others
2. Juggling home and office front
3. Unable to spend much time with the children
4. Unable to connect with family/spouse
5. Lack of time to spend with your social circle
6. Lack of Me-Time
7. Health challenges/issues

#7 will require you to visit your GP and check a few vital parameters to make sure that all is well with your physical health. The others, you will need to do a reality check to assess where the triggers lie that make you feel angry over little things. You do know that it's possible to work on it and few light over these little things, don't you?

All the best!

Hi Pushpa, I start my day with morning meditation which brings calm and peace to my mind. But after first instance that angers me, the calm from the morning is lost and the mood for the entire day is disturbed. Although I don't express the anger outside in words or action, but the mind is definitely angered. What can I do so that words or actions don't anger me ? And if they do, how can I bring myself back to my calm state quickly ?
Ans: To remain calm even when faced with anger, it's essential to train the mind regularly, not just in the mornings. Here’s a simple way to handle it:

Mindful Breathing: When you feel anger rising, pause and take deep breaths. Slowly inhale for 4 counts, hold for 4, and exhale for 6 counts. This simple practice can calm your mind in moments.

Witness Your Anger: Instead of reacting, observe the anger. Tell yourself, "This is just a passing emotion. I don't need to hold on to it."

Practice Gratitude: Shift your focus to something positive—like a good moment from your day. Gratitude quickly softens anger.

Carry Peace Throughout the Day: After morning meditation, visualize yourself remaining calm no matter what happens. This mental preparation helps when challenges arise.

Remember, meditation and mindfulness need consistent guidance to become effective. A yoga or meditation coach can teach you techniques tailored to your personality and lifestyle. Self-practice is good, but expert guidance ensures you build resilience faster and avoid frustration.

When anger disrupts your peace, see it as a signal to return to your breath and inner calm—each time, you grow stronger.

Tech Careers and Skill Development Expert - Answered on Dec 05, 2025

Career
Dear Sir, I did my BTech from a normal engineering college not very famous. The teaching was not great and hence i did not study well. I tried my best to learn coding including all the technologies like html,css,javascript,react js,dba,php because i wanted to be a web developer But nothing seem to enter my head except html and css. I don't understand a language which has more complexities. Is it because of my lack of experience or not devoting enough time. I am not sure. I did many courses online and tried to do diplomas also abroad which i passed somehow. I recently joined android development course because i like apps but the teaching was so fast that i could not memorize anything. There was no time to even take notes down. During the course i did assignments and understood the code because i have to pass but after the course is over i tend to forget everything. I attempted a lot of interviews. Some of them i even got but could not perform well so they let me go. Now due to the AI booming and job markets in a bad shape i am re-thinking whether to keep studying or whether its just time waste. Since 3 years i am doing labour type of jobs which does not yield anything to me for survival and to pay my expenses. I have the quest to learn everything but as soon as i sit in front of the computer i listen to music or read something else. What should i do to stay more focused? What should i do to make myself believe confident. Is there still scope of IT in todays world? Kindly advise.
Ans: Your story does not show failure.
It shows persistence, effort, and desire to improve.

Most people give up.
You didn’t.
That means you will succeed — but with the right method, not the old one.
