This type of drum circle commentary is so unhelpful.

Raising the bar for security in the software industry requires much more than just self reflection and elbow grease from individual engineers.

The solution requires buy in from all stakeholders. Especially management.

We are not talking about the same problem. Yo are not seeing the fact that it is only you who are responsible for what’s happening inside you . And you are taking the wrong path fixing that by fixing everything else but you.
"Yo are not seeing the fact that it is only you who are responsible for what’s happening inside you ."

This kind of pop-psych babble is naive and abusive.

Blame the whole world, why don’t ya
That's clearly the only other option.
Agree to disagree.

Anger is quite useful.

Hmm. Anger is a byproduct of fear. Fear is a signal.

Victory achieved with the power of anger will not last for long?

My suggestion is to take distance towards things that keep us busy, stressed and angry.

This usually reduces the stress levels so much that some of the healthy and objective thinking capacity is gained. Can take some time though. Weeks. Even months. There is time!

In many cases we'll find that there indeed was something which is "side railed" within. And other things which are less than optimal with the outside world too. =)

Both aspects are equally important from our individual perspective.

What is inside we have better control for (though sometimes it really requires effort and patience to change even these things).

What is outside we can possibly start to bend according to our vision.

Before we start to bend outside, it would be good if we are clear within.

All that being said - This indeed can be the moment from which things start to turn to much better direction in so many ways. So perhaps even anger has it's purpose. Not as a tool, but as a initiator.

Godspeed!
