[[Aggression]] is overt, often harmful, social interaction with the intention of inflicting damage or other unpleasantness upon another individual. People may intentionally use aggression to control or bully other people, or as a result of poor self awareness and impulse control, be completely unconscious of their aggression towards others. Aggression is a potent pre-cursor to violence, and as such great thoughtfulness to discipline aggression is needed to develop [[Consciousness]] and practice the [[Law of One]]. | [[Aggression]] is overt, often harmful, social interaction with the intention of inflicting damage or other unpleasantness upon another individual.

Submissiveness may be viewed as the opposite of aggressiveness. | Aggression may occur either in retaliation or without provocation. In humans, frustration due to blocked goals can cause aggression.
