It has come to my notice that 90% of all the decisions made or taken when one is angry is never a good one.

When one is upset or angry,it is encouraged that the person stay calm and try to control that moment because any actions or decisions taken at that point in time must be a negative one.

So many people who regrets their actions today are as a result of taking decisions when they are angry there by over reacting..

So bad.

Making decisions when you’re angry is like driving through a storm. You can’t see clearly & you’re more likely to crash. Anger clouds judgment, narrows your focus & pushes you towards short term reactions instead of long term solutions. You might say or do something you’ll regret, just to feel better in the moment. Wait until you’ve cooled down, clarity comes with calm.

Similar reactions also occurs with the opposite - making decisions when you are over excited. For instance, Herod didn't want to execute John the Baptist even when the Herodias wanted him to do so, but he made his greatest mistake by making a promise to the Herodias' daughter while he was very astonished after watching her dance. Which ended John's life by beheading. Herod regretted it, but had no other option than to keep to his words. Hence, we should always think twice before makind decisions while in these two moods.

I have heard good words from different people and one of it is about being angry and making decisions. So, it goes by this that;
"Don't make a decision when angry" and then;
"Never promise when you're happy.
It is obvious that if we're angry, we're not on our right minds to make important decisions in life. We have to calm down or just let it pass because it will eventually going away once we're done with that moment of anger.

Making decisions while you are angry is a very wrong thing to do. That is why it is better to remain quiet or leave an environment where you are angry into not making you to say or do things that you can regret later. Decisions made at that point are as a result of your anger, they may have been the triggering factor for that and you’ll only realise your mistakes when you’re in a calm state. When angry, you’re being controlled over and you have to fight to take control by not uttering words that you can’t take back or actions that can’t be taken back when done.

never but it’s not just when you are angry i think all extreme emotions can be damaging when you are too happy or too excited you might do things you didn’t think much through so after you have calmed down you might end up rethinking your choices

so avoid making decisions when you are feeling any extreme emotions

It is more like 100% of decisions made during anger are bad compared to any viable alternative if they exist for that specific situation.

Better yet, don't get angry to begin with. Many doubt, but it is possible. Anger is a learned behavior that acts like a habit, and it is possible to limit how often it comes up.

It is very similar, it will just lead to different kinds of effects usually. I agree, you should not make decisions when you are emotional.

What they say is true. I have learned the way making decisions and taking actions when you are angry is one good way to screw things up. When your emotions are swingly it will be easy for you to say things you weren't suppose to say and do things you weren't supposed to do.

The best way is to stay chill whenever you are angry. After some hours, the rage will cull off and you will be in your right senses to take control of the situation at hand.

Another take home; Don't make promises too when you are over excite or on cloud nine.

Calming down is one part of anger management, but looking at the positive aspects of a situation is also important to anger management. Looking at the big picture in perspective is also important, including the longer-term situation.

Personally,I think it has benefited me a lot

But I think is of two ways actually. I could remember during my 100Lv in
the university, I was  force to stay off camp but I refuse,why, because I knew how it was going to end up as a student. But regardless of how angry I was, I now decided to stay in Hostel because I knew how helpful and how focus I will be . compared to off camp where I think distraction could have eluded me.without minding how unhappy my parents was at that time

So I think taking decision when angry is good sometimes but one has to think rationally while doing that.

Making decisions and executing it when you're angry can be very distructive, you will most likely regret it when you are calm and back to your normal senses. I saw a murder suspect on a crime TV who was narrating how he stabbed somebody to death in an argument, he suddenly started to weep during his confession on camera. He said that he never meant to kill the person that it was out of anger that he stabbed the person, he was so full of regret but unfortunately he cannot undo what he has done. Anger clouds good judgement and we must try to control ourselves from taking decisions at such times because most often we will regret it, remaining calm is so much better.

@OP

However, people often don't distinguish between anger and determination. A lot of so-called anger is really determination.

Anger comes about from some wrong or supposed wrong being done or happening. Determination is the result of thinking about the 'thing' that caused the anger, and then doing something about the problem.

Many good things that have been accomplished came about because anger opened the eyes of someone.

Not at all. I have experienced it personally. I work in a large work place with hundreds of employee and about 40 different departments. A lot of assistant managers, supervisors and We always have factions and subfactions.
I work in the administrative department and resolving conflict is one of our tasks.
Almost all of time the employee had taken a decision when they are angry, they ended up in a worse place than they were. Its not that we punish them, we always let them chose where they want to go. And almost all of the time they regret the actions taken in anger.

I am a typical example to the OP. There was a time that I made a decision when I was angry and it didn't go well with me because I shot myself on my own foot when the aftermath of my actions played out. It was a big lesson for me and after that time, I don't make decisions in haste or when I am angry to prevent further problems from playing out due to poor decision making.

If you don't want to regret in your decision in the future don't take decision when you are angry, because it will attract so many things that will affect the life of some people in that society. Taking decision when angry will not bring peace, love and progress to you, because your decision will never be a good one, and it will hurt people around you and those that make you to be angry.

Do you want your decision to be positive at the end? Try to make decisions when you are in the good mood with people around you, because you will not take decision that will affect your life and other people life's in the society.

Anger is an emotion which not everyone can control but those who can they can use it to achieve great things.
Kings used to have anger and they used to go on wars hands on hands with weapons
Anger removes fears
Anger makes you feel dominant
maybe you will have less friends because not everyone sits with the godfathers.
If a person uses anger with a bussiness mindset or he can become something which no one can even dream of
Also anger creates dream

It is not ideal to make decisions when you are angry or excited. Anger can make you take harsh decisions that you might regret later. There is news of a man who put his house on fire because his wife was cheating. The fire killed his wife and his four children. He was crying after the incident and said he never knew that the fire would kill his entire family. 

You can also make promises that you cannot fulfill when are very happy. Some women always request things from their husbands if they observe that they are overjoyed.  At that time he can take decisions that he cannot handle.

Before making any decision in life, it is important to critically consider the consequences. Anger and joy can make someone think irrationally, it is important to decide when you are normal.

Decision making is supposed to be made when one is in a very good mindset because you will be able to make good decisions that will yeild positive results but when you make decisions when you are angry, the outcome of your decision will be dangerous because there will be a reflection of your current state of mind when your decision was made. Always make your decisions when you are in good condition but when you are angry you shouldn't make any decision cause it's not going to be a good one.

The good decision to make when angry, is the decision to look into the problem that caused the anger, and then to logically figure out what to do about it.

I won't say it's always bad, because sometimes we have to react immediately towards determined events. Let's say you see a beloved person being beaten. Logically, you will be angry at the aggressor and will act accordingly to protect the person you love.

But in most cases it's definitely a bad idea, which can lead to noxious consequences, including regrets later. By taking decisions when angry, people can compromise their lives forever from that moment on.

Even during a moment of fury, the person has to measure his impulses and get most rational as possible to take the most effective decisions thinking on future outcomes.

When someone takes decisions when they are angry, there is always a later regret because this decisions are mostly the wrong ones. Anger clouds one judgement it makes you react instead of responding, I have seen situations of where people quit their jobs, end a long time relationship, say a lot of hurtful and bad things all because they simply acted in the heat of the moment.
It's simply better to cool off even if it means walking away for some time and when you are calm you can think things through and make decisions that you do not have to apologize for later.

It is inappropriate to make decisions when you are depressed, stress or angry. Because it may lead to destruction, just a single uninformed decisions can destroy the lives of many people. For you to regrets letter is better for you to think wisely and calmly before taking any decision.

I think is really advisable for someone who is angry or upset to keep silent. When you are upset, it is possible for you to said whatever comes to your mind at the moment without your concept, so it better for you to sit down silently without uttering a word. Or better still leave the house just as you suggested. To prevent making any mistake or any wrong decision that may cause damage or may be harmful to you and destroy the lives of some people, which you may regret for the end of your life.

I agree with you, of course, it is never right to take any decision in anger, its results are more likely to be negative. During excessive anger, you should keep yourself calm, take deep breaths or leave the house and focus on other things for a while. Anger can be a natural process, but the reaction to this process is different for each person. Decision-making in anger is emotional, unstable and suicidal. Anger destroys the clarity of logic and reality, due to which it later turns into regret. Anger is natural, it is not a fault, but most of the time this decision turns into a fault. A wise person can control his reaction by feeling his anger. Therefore, everyone should control his anger and take a cold-headed decision because a wrong decision can be the cause of tears for the rest of his life.

That is so obvious, most decisions based on emotions tend to yield more negative results than positive ones, especially when we are stressed, sad, or angry. I believe any of us has been in that situation at least a few times or witnessed it many times around us. Therefore, we should avoid making decisions when we cannot control our emotions, whether angry or excited. Any decision, especially those related to finances or important issues, should be made based on reason , analysis , data...instead of emotions to avoid regret.

Decisions made when one is angry aren't necessarily wrong decisions. They are always the right decisions but they turn out not to be favourable decisions. This is because we are not always truthful to ourselves. We pretend alot and wants to please everyone even when we are not supposed to.

So, if we are raw to reality, those decisions made when angry are the right decisions befitting that particular situation. But when you are no longer angry, it is expected that you will make another set of right decisions, which will contradict the ones you made already. So, decision making depends heavily on the situation sorrouding it. When over joyous, you could make promises that you cannot fulfil.

When we are angry, we tend to take actions we ordinarily wouldn't have thought of taking. Some people are provoked into facing their fears, while others end up ruining what took them a long time to build. Whether anger works for good or not, I would not recommend it. People should learn to build confidence in themselves; be very smart and bold enough to face anything. Decisions are best taken when one is in a stable state of mind. Any deviation from this puts the individual in a very vulnerable state. If he happens to make the right decision at that point, it was only luck on his side. That does not mean he should train himself to wait until he gets angry before taking action. Some anger can be dangerous.

I agree, and I'm guilty of this, so many of my bad actions were when I was angry, and I cannot control what the situation is, and I just go with the flow, and regret later, when we are angery our mind is clouded and canot think properly we just let our emotions take over our decisions, so many relaitonships perish because of the emotions.
investment dissolves because the made the wrong move because they are angry.
Its ok to be angry but its better that when you are angry to be alone, don't decide and let hours or days passed to clear out everything and your mind is calm enough to decide what's best.

How you act during the moment your emotions are altered is what is called your real self.

All of us are humans and it is a must that every once in a while we are not in a happy mood, sometimes we don't need anybody to provoke us, just by having mood swings, and there is another whole part of us doing what isn't right. The worst part of making a decision when angry is when dealing with money issues, those decisions are always the wrong once, it will take little time after the incident before rightfully returning to correct sense, same way gamblers are also advised not to gamble with emotions, the mind needs to be stable to avoid unpleasant scenes.

No it’s not a good thing to make decisions when one is angry ,because emotions can cloud your sense of reasoning resulting to impulsive choice that may possibly lead to regret, decision made out of anger might often lead to regret , guilt , anger is bad disease that can destroy one’s life if not taking adequate precautions, I’m a victim of it , so I will advice anyone never to make decisions when one is angry or else you will live to regret your negative actions .

It's not an easy thing to control yourself at the point when you're angry. People will always say that when you're angry that it's best to just walk away and not do anything at that spot but the reality is that it's easier said than done. Once the anger sets in, your actions are not going to be easily tamed till that moment passes.

Almost every action you take when you're angry is going to lead to potential regret in the long run. A lot of people that lust it and got involved in a fight that resulted in their death at the point of giving up wished they had a second chance of refraninng from Thier actions but unfortunately, Thier are some actions that are irrecoverable once you've taken it. If you don't learn the act of discipline at the point that anger sets in, you will fall for everything.

It's never a good idea to make decisions when you're upset since you will be too foolish and blind to make any bad choices. Anger is never a good thing, and many people end themselves in trouble because of the bad choices they make when they are angry. Many people have been imprisoned for killing someone they arguing with, and they made a bad choice, unlike they did with their eyes open, they did it when they were angry which led to bad decisions.

However, some people are struggling to control their anger and lose control when they have a misunderstanding with someone. Many long term relationships have ended, and people have given up on their jobs due to wrong choices. If we are unable to maintain ourselves during an argument, we need to leave the position to avoid making a bad choice that we may later come to regret, because many people have been through this before.

The truth is that, the world can never come to this kind of position where people will not take action when they are angry. Some of the war that we experience or told and the ones that might come in the future are as a result of disagreement on the negotiating table which might have provoked one side of the device. The world will have been a better place if people don't take decisions or make actions out of anger, it is a good one to make advice as to tell people that they should not take action when they are angry but is also good for the advice to be on person's not to make their fellow human beings angry so they will not take a reactction that might seem unlikely.

Meh, it is rather a matter of common sense that people are supposed to avoid making choices when they are not fully in control of their minds and their actions. I would way that the worst decisions are those who are taken when one is suffering intoxication by alcohol or angry.
It only takes one to see the news, and realize how many people have killed others because of how anger took over their mind and they could not control themselves.
Anyways, that is why one needs to be cooled down before moving ones hands.

Cain killed Abel out of anger, after all, and was the worst choice of his life.

Anger and excessive emotions are often responsible for your losses. Not only in gambling but in any situation. If someone is personally emotionally distressed, it is more important for them to avoid financial matters at that time because most decisions made with emotions can be wrong.

Practicing to keep calm in gambling makes a gambler more useful in dealing with disastrous situations. Gamblers who are overly affected lose money and luck is not in their favor and cannot keep calm in angry situations due to addiction.

This is not just in gambling but it happens in every other aspect of life that involves business, investment and in deals. When you are in a bad state of mind there is a tendency that it affects their ability to make good decisions this is because mentally you will be occupied by what is controlling your mindset at that moment that's why people are discouraged from making decisions or striking deals when they are in an uncomfortable position, emotionally unstable or unhappy.

Well it mostly depends on the decision that someone wants to make at that point. When it concerns decisions that are related to your personal relationship with others, your religion, family and businesses etc.I think such decisions should be made with the calmness of the mind.
But there are certain decisions that can only be born in an angry mood and still produce positive results. Some radical decisions to improve your status, maybe things hasn't been working very well for you, and you want to change the way things has been working for you can also come out when you are angry with yourself.

Let me paint a picture here for more understanding. Have you ever been to a family function or a gathering and you were insulted or neglected simply because you don't have money? Or your spouse left you because you don't have money anymore. Situations like this can get you angry and make you take decisions that will improve your life. What am saying in nutshell is that not all decisions made when we are angry that always ends in bad results.

Well understood. Religious people call this type of anger a holy anger, if you want to make decisions to improve your status and to get things right when you have failed so many times, taking some bold in other words angry decisions can be used to do it if that is the only way. But if you must make such decisions be careful so that it doesn't bring problems that may affect you in future because a lot of people do things to get out of a particular situation but at the end it ends up affecting people around them or themselves in the future.

Though, it all depends
Because not  taking a step or taking decision is even more dangerous than engaging in anger or in calm mood..
Another dangerous aspect of this is taking decision in fear no matter how calculating and calm you may be.

For instance,
I was sent to another location at my place of work where some group of person come to have a filled day with all kind of molestation on workers.
A day came when their actions got to our neck and we angrily took a calculated decision that ended the whole mess.

I can say, it's being proactively calculated.

Obviously it isn't good to take any decision when angry.
Anger makes one forget his personality and make one act irrationally,
When angry we loose control over our power of decision and we end up taking a wrong step, we mostly end in regrets

Obviously, taken decisions when angry is like passing judgment without proper checksup.  Anger is never friendly to humanity right from the time of old, anger can make you do what you will later regret for life so it not advisable to take or make any critical or sensitive decisions while angry thank you.

The truth is before you asked that question, you know the answer. You know no one will tell you to make decisions when you are angry. Because emotion are ready to take the floor and act. So reasonable people will tell you never make any decisions when you are angry. Because, most Times decision you made when you are angry are decisions you regret later. Because you may not really make those decisions from a proper reasoning. Anger is a very bad thing and if you have not learnt how to control your anger, you will always get yourself into trouble.

The regret that comes after taking decisions at the place of anger lingers for a long period of time. You can build something for years, and just one moment of anger can destroy everything and make you lose good opportunities or even relationships.

In a room where decisions are made, there's no place for anger at all, the results won't be nice. It's better to walk away, keep mute or listen to good music to calm your nerve when you're angry, one moment you let it out that's the end.

Hot tempered people gets angry easily and they end up ruining something special in their lives due to harsh decision making during the state of anger. This is why, you should be able to overcome the anger in you first before you take any actions or decide on a situation or problem. You can give yourself a little time to overcome your angry.

Even while it is easy to say that it is wrong to take decisions when we are angry at some point we find ourselves doing it but however, the importance of keeping calm and have a sober reflection before we take decisions whenever we are angry can not be overly emphasised because it is an everyday thing that we should keep reminding ourselves, at any point we make that mistake of taking decisions when are angry it ends up bringing a reproach, it takes lot of discipline to uphold that sanity because it is too emotional which should be controlled.

From what I have learnt over the years, you can actually tell one's true intentions and opinion towards others from the actions they take when they're angry. And that is why it is always advisable to sort out issues with others, so as to avoid raising unnecessary points when in anger. The truth is, staying calm is not always as easy as we all expect it to be because not everyone has what it takes to overlook certain things.

So, I advise that we try as much as possible to sort minimum/major issues out with those around us, instead of trying to pile them up, because anger can be triggered at any point, which can lead to bringing up unresolved issues.

I think you have answered your question in the topic in your opening lines. Nothing good comes out from making decisions in a state of anger because it would not come out right, it will only cause regret.
Emotions can run wild and as such when it's not under proper check, you can say things or do things. Words are things that can't be taken back once said, if it is a bad thing, it has done the damage. So imagine it concerns a decision making that was done under the influence of anger, it won't end well.

In the rage of anger, the minds/souls eyes is blind, so blind that  driving in the storm might even be better off, because you can decide to slow down. To be more specific, acting in anger is more likened to not just driving but driving speed through a storm..

Ordinarily, when an idea strikes your mind the best thing to do is conserve it. Sometimes you will later realize it wasn't worth launching or more insight will show up making it a better approach.. To talk of anger that is already launchable in action or words.

Deciding when angry has left so many regrettable pains even life time pains.
Calming down can work magic

Taken decisions while being angry is not very good because such state of angriness can lead to so many decisions that one can come to regret the decision he has taken later, so it is very advisable to always learn how to control your angriness so that one will not take decisions that can hunt him in feature that can never be reversible in life time, because many has lost their life in taking wrong decision just because they are angry n one thing or others that they were not able to bear it than taking the decision in tha spot of angriness just to satisfied their curiosity.

Well, considering there are people who literally become murderers while they are angry, for example, when they find out their partner has been involved in an affair with other. Then it is easy to reach the conclusion it is actually never idea to take impulsive choices (when one is under intense emotions, regardless of the nature of those emotions).
I would even go further and add one is not supposed to make choices when extremely happy either, because both happiness and anger can both fog common sense, before we realize it, we could have committed a very serious mistake or misstep.

It is a definite fact that anger does blur judgment and creates decisions that individuals come to regret in life. One should think and relax before responding even in a situation where the feeling is strong. Your description of anger converting people into doing outrageous things actually highlights the detriment that we can have by making rash decisions. And you are right the exuberance of being too happy also can mess up thinking. Good and bad emotion can get our perceptions skewed and making big decisions on emotions can be really unwise, so going slow would be prudent.

We should not take decision when angry because it may cost us, taking decision in harsh condition is not the true nature of us and we need to calm in taking decision when we are not in angry mood, some people have taken decision and acted wrongly while they were raged and provoked to the peak, but instead of them withdrawing from making decision, they went ahead and do such by the influence of their current situation and things went wrong so badly for them later, which they regret making such utterance and had wish they were not able to take action then.

Making decisions when you are angry is one of the worst mistake anyone can make because when your adrenaline is pumping due to your emotion at the moment, it can spur you into a quick response without logical thinking that you might end up regretting
Most murder cases on the news are as a result angry decisions in the heat of the moment. There is even a name for it " crime of passion "
Although one can never allude anger because it's a natural human emotion, it's essential to take a deep breath and think twice before making any decision because as I've mentioned earlier,  when your adrenaline is pumping and your body get into a " fight-flight" response, you won't be able to predict your own actions.
My advice is to always take decisions when you're in a calm mood, when you're relaxed and incharge of your own body and mind.

It's not good to make decisions when one is angry because in a short while when you sit down and think about it you will regret why you took that step in the first place, just as the holy book siad in James 1:19 to 21 which days Remember this my dear friends everyone must be quick to listen, but slow to speak and slow to become angry, human anger does not achieve God's righteous purpose so get rid of every filthy habit and all wicked conduct submit to God and accept the world that he plant in your heart.

We cannot be justified by our actions when decisions are taken while we are already tempered, things aren't done this way and we should not be found in this manner behaving, first of all, we are not expected to be in this kind of mode, we ha e to learn on how we can conduct ourselves right whenever at the peak of the heat of a situation, this will tell more about us from how we behave or react to situations like this.

Its all depend on the situation, there are situations that required immediately action and when you are angry to make. If you caught you wife cheating, you do not need to take time to decide on her punishment, on the spot send her away and file for a divorce, no matter her pleasing, do not take such woman back, she will ruin your life.

on the other hands, when it comes to business. No matter how angry you could be never take a decision, always rethink the outcome of the decision. give it time and get over it first, then review your decision before action. Many businesses has folded because of anger, fighting your client because of anger can end your business, regardless of his offence never fight your client when you are angry, or speak rudely to them when you are angry, always control your anger.  

The mind makes the right choice in a stable or calm mood, anger and high excitement can utter our choices. Holding on to selfcontrol gives the enraged an edge against acting in a hurry. Having a rethink in an outrageous state of mind, saves us from alot of trouble.

It's funny how I just finished watching a video few minutes ago about anger issues and how it has made people to make bad decisions, being in control over your anger is considered a luxury to me because when you are in control over your feelings especially when you are angry you will be coordinated enough to know the words coming out from your mouth so that you don't end up saying the wrong things and taking wrong decisions. Making decisions when you are angry is one of the mistakes people make and some murder cases are made out of anger from probably a heated argument or so.

Its not a good thing taking decision when angry, because it does not portray a good image about us, we should avoid taking decision whenever we are in an offset mood, same also, we should always avoid anything that may increase the tendencies of being in such a tempered situation, because we are not going to act accordingly as it is expected of us to do, anger does not fix things, instead it spoil them and damage as many as possible if we are not been careful.

Taking decisions when one is angry can be disastrous in the sense that moment you are been driven by your emotions. That period also you can make costly mistakes that can lead to regrets. When angry, you are not the one controlling yourself again but your emotions is the one controlling you at that point in time.

Anger is an emotion that destroys the right thinking of a person. Talking in anger and excitement also has a bad effect on health. Decisions taken in anger are a cause of regret for a person and many times it can destroy life.

When anger becomes excessive, one has to control oneself, drink water if necessary, be patient and convince oneself. That person is the smartest who does not take any rash decisions in anger.

No it is a very wrong thing to do why you are angry .so I advise we don't take decision why we are angry. It can be very deristick if we do so.

When you're angry:

Your emotional brain (amygdala) takes over.

Your logical brain (prefrontal cortex) gets quiet.

You become more impulsive, biased, and focused on short-term satisfaction (like revenge or control).

You miss nuance and overestimate threats.

In short:
You might feel powerful in the moment — but you’re not thinking clearly.

This is obviously the time some people come out of their shell to face that reality that has been threatening their existence. Anger can be a powerful tool to either make or destroy. As much as I  want people to always think twice before taking some decisions, the truth still remains that anger might be the solution some persons need.

This just reminded me of when I was little. It took me only one day to face the bully who has been threatening my peace as a child  ;D.  Ofcourse you can already guess how everything ended. Bullying ended when I got angry. Not every situations require calm confrontations.

The truth is that when one is angry, it is very difficult to think or reason well, so the best thing to do is to control your anger, because saying anything or making any decisions will make one regret later on. The best thing to do when one is angry is to be silent in word and decision, because if one is unable to control their actions, it will still lead to more problems. There is nothing good about anger; this has caused many people to fall into problems from which they were never able to come out.

Not all decisions require critical thinking;
for instance, if I want to start a project or a business, I should be able to have a big though. And I should do this in the right state of mind.
But if someone comes to my family and kill 3 of my siblings, do I need to think before I will conclude to kill the person? The answer is no. Even if I know that taking the laws into my hand can land me in prison, but I might become less a human if I don't decide under the influence of anger immediately.
So, decisions taken in anger might not be good, but they could be the right decisions.
Note: Not all good decisions are right and vice versa.

I do not think we should make some important ones when we are mad. It can make the decisions we are only making because of the mood we are in at this time.

And if we are ill tempered well then maybe we will regret making this decision. If we are in this mind we must wait until we are not angry any more to make a important decision. Take some breaths and becoming calm is what we should do before making a angry decision.

You are not supposed to make decisions while you are angry because the damage it may cause may be greater than what makes you angry.

While you are angry your reasoning are not straight forward again, because your heart has turned to evil and it's very important you manage to control it because if you allow it to explode,you May regret it after.. so no matter what may happen please always think before you taking action, because alot people have found themselves in a place where they are not supposed to be,in the name of wrong decision made especially when they are not in good mood,so decision supposed to be made when someone is in a state of his or her normal sense..

When a person's brain is healthy, his thoughts and decisions are mature, on the other hand, when he is angry, his brain cannot take the right decision. At that time, most of the decision are made by emotions, due to which the results are not positive. In most cases, it is seen that people take decision during anger later they regretted. People are not in control during anger, at that time possibility of making mistakes are very high.

That's taking calculated decision and that's good on you. I guess that for every decision, we have to calculate it depending on the mood and emotion that we're feeling. Because one wrong action and decision, things are going to change and that situation might not be favorable on you. But with what you guys did is a perfect example that you need to assess and calculate everything before taking an action. You were angry on the situation but you know what you're about to deal and how to handle it despite that emotions are high.

I've learned over the years that when I'm angry or scared it's always better to just wait until the next day. If the deal can wait, sleep on it. Waking up the next day can completely change your perspective.
Also, people will try to force you to do something by trying to hasten you, put pressure. Don't let them and take your time. If they really need something from you  they will keep coming.

So, no. It's never a good idea to decide in anger.

When you're angry, your emotions can override your rational thinking, taking or leading you to a Rash decision that will make you regret later.

So it's not recommended for one to make important decision when being angry.

1.Always calm down before making decisions when you are angry,
2.Alway talk to someone you trust to get advice and seek counsel

Lastly when you are angry always engage in activities to ease your mode, and take a deep breath.
Sometimes you can sleep over it,yes some time ago some one made me very angry,I was angry to the point of retaliating but then I said to myself calm,I had to sleep over it at night and when it was Dawn I feel so good.

(Just as the topic says that is it good to take decisions when one is angry?) you're supposed to know that when one is angry you may not be thinking straight  so taking decision in such situations is very wrong and there is every possibility that you will end up making the wrong decision so whenever you're angry all you need to do is to pause what ever plans you Wish to make and just take a break for sometime to clear your head, because if you choose to continue with the aggression you might end up messing things up, that is why whenever I'm angry I don't always move further in whatever thing I'm doing not until i clear my head.

In as much as decision making is concern, the only time someone can make you take wrong decision is either when you are happy or angry, so to Avoid making  such mistake we must be conscious of our current state of mind when making important decisions  of any kind.
At times we got carried away by emotions at a particular time leading to wrong choice of actions that turns to hunt us in the future without proper knowledge of how it came to be all because the decision was made when one was angry or happy, the only way of avoiding such hilarious mistakes, we need to know our current state of mind at all time
