Anger often gets a bad rap. Of course it’s no secret why. Within the past several months television cameras have beamed around the world shots of a leading female professional tennis player threatening a line judge and a Congressman yelling out that the President is a liar, not capturing these individuals’ best moments.

As I mentioned in my bio, I’ve recently become addicted to off-road motorcycling. It’s full of freedom, adventure, and the challenge of improving your skills. It’s my new passion and, without really meaning to, I’ve stumbled upon a way to make it pay for itself. By leveraging three basic strategies you can too.
