To be frank and to get to the point, in my life, the strongest emotion I've ever felt is hate. That hate leads to anger which is passion, I think of it as "emotional fuel", with that passion, I have reasons, strong reasons, to get things done and to keep pushing forward.

Only downside of such emotions is they CAN be negative. It's like fire, if you don't control it, it will do you harm but if you can harness it's power it can do you good.

When people have a strong feeling attached to a goal, they usually are more likely to achieve the goal, the one exception is anger, because that CAN backfire. So I can see why you would classify anger as a negative emotion but I say, use what ever you have.

All the bad experiences of my life are lessons and I'm not going to just forget them or let them go. They haunt me everyday and they give me reason to better myself.

To put it another way, when you find inner peace and happiness, you lose your edge, you become soft and careless. However when YOU put YOURSELF through hell, that's when you grow. So I guess what I mean to say is you CAN use all that "negative energy". It's not fun but it works.

In my most difficult times, when I have zero motivation, all I need to do is remember all the "bad experiences" from the past and just thinking about these things gets me angry and I get back to work. Since these negative emotions interfere with your happiness, I sappose they should be used sparingly, again like fire, if you let them go they will destroy you, that's why I don't think about them unless I have to, but if I were to forget about them or give them some positive meaning, it would be no where near as powerful.
