The bigger the temper, the smaller the person.
You can measure the substantiality of a person by how easily it is to deregulate them, meaning (through their own complicitness) strip them of their self-discipline (a.k.a. spiritual freedom).
The more sensitive the ego, the smaller and weaker the person is, not so much in the sense of physical size and strength, but in terms of their true self, meaning their spiritual power, presence, and willfulness. Are they a true major force to be reckoned with, or a mere measly negligible sleeping seed of a spirit hidden away deep inside of a puppet body being played by other things and other people? Are they an unconscious pawn or a real player?
Anger is a type of fear, and fear and anger are just one example of the strings of an ego. Greed, comfort addiction, hunger, sexual appetite, and attention-seeking are other strings with which the spiritually unfree can easily be played like puppets.
In terms of fear, spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) is called bravery. You can use fear to control a coward but not a brave person, not because a brave person's ego doesn't feel fear per se, but rather because their ego and fear doesn't control them. They are free spirits even when you scare their ego. You can not manipulate a brave person with fear. If you can control someone with fear or anger, they are by definition a coward. And the vice versa is true too: If someone is a coward, you can control them with fear or anger. Fear (and anger which is just a specific type of fear) is just an example. The same goes for all other bodily feelings and urges in relation to which one could be a slavish puppet versus a self-disciplined free spirit, such as discomfort, pain, hunger, and sexual appetite.
Those humans who haven't mastered their ego and who thus are mastered by their ego can accordingly be easily mastered by you or any other person through their sensitive greedy ego. If they can't control their ego, you can control their ego. Easily. And then they become your puppet.
Most humans are not free-spirited (a.k.a. self-disciplined), and thus they can easily be played like puppets.
To have full-fledged honest spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) is to cut your would-be strings and become a real boy. Or girl. Or, as Nietzsche would call it, Übermensch, meaning superhuman.
Since most humans are easily manipulated puppets (a.k.a. spiritual slaves), to be one of the very tiny few who has true spiritual freedom (a.k.a. self-discipline) is to be so exceptionally and incredibly powerful, graceful, competent and confident as to at least seem supernatural if not literally be supernatural.
To follow the teachings of my book is to thus feel and actually be like a true god walking among mere mortals.
Many are attracted to these kinds of teachings because of the incredible power and wealth that following the teachings will lead to. But, ironically, fantasies about how you would use the nearly unlimited money and massive supernatural power to fulfill your greediest wishes, to fight off the fears and dangers that make you cower most, and to most fulfill the aims of your envy, anger, hunger, or sexual appetite and such is one of the biggest roadblocks that will prevent you from truly following the teachings.
The power of which I speak is only granted to those who wouldn't use it in the way you would probably use it which is why the power probably hasn't been granted to you yet.
Whether you want the power and money and fame and success, or you want the spiritual freedom and inner peace from which it comes, either way the teachings of my book will give you both if you follow those teachings, but you won't get the former without the latter. You won't get the fruit of power without planting and growing the tree of this peace.
It's a power reserved only for the lovers, never the haters.
With love,

- In other words, if you are a slave to anger (a.k.a. a coward), then anyone that can manipulate your anger can play you like a puppet and thereby become your master. And anger is easy to manipulate.
