Although John has become calmer over the years still he gets agitated several times.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I will flare up if I&#8217;m tired, if I&#8217;m exhausted, if I&#8217;m overwhelmed,&#8221; said the singer. &#8220;I don&#8217;t like having that temperament, but it&#8217;s all usually done and dusted within five or 10 minutes.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>He added that he became more impatient while writing the song if he is unable to write the song in an hour or so. &#8220;I know people think, &#8216;Oh, God, he doesn&#8217;t work that hard,'&#8221; the &#8220;I&#8217;m Still Standing&#8221; performer said. &#8220;But it&#8217;s really effortless. If I get a lyric and I look at it, the song comes straight out.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>In 2021, John shared that he was working on his temper, but it is still withing him and can &#8220;explode at any moment.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I&#8217;ve been trying to work on that for a long time and I&#8217;ve got a wonderful husband who knows how to get me out of that stuff,&#8221; he said during an interview. &#8220;I think it&#8217;s an artistic thing &#8212; artists can be so self-destructive sometimes, for no reason. I can have a day when everything in my whole life is going so well, and I get up and I feel like the world is against me. Why, I do not know.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>By going to therapy, he realised that it was all because of his strained relationship with his parents and he knew he didn&#8217;t want to be that kind of father, reported People.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The self-loathing, not having any self-esteem, that all comes from when I was a kid,&#8221; he recalled.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I was always afraid of my parents, and I didn&#8217;t want my children to be afraid of me,&#8221; John added of his sons Elijah, 11, and Zachary, 13. &#8220;They&#8217;re going to feel embraced and loved every second of the day; they&#8217;re not going to be beaten and have those scars for the rest of their lives. I thought I was too late to have children but actually they came at the right time in my life, and that&#8217;s taught me so much, &#8221; as per People.<\/p>\n<p><i>(Except for the headline, this story has not been edited by NDTV staff and is published from a syndicated feed.)<\/i><\/p>\n<p>                                        <!-- Featured Video --><br \/>\n                                                                                                                        <!-- Recommended Widget -->\n                                                                                                                    <\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ndtv.com\/entertainment\/my-fuse-is-very-short-elton-john-on-his-short-tempered-nature-7230961#publisher=newsstand\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington: Singer-songwriter and pianist Elton John talked about his short-tempered nature and shared how his husband David Furnish always stays by his side through all the challenging times, reported People. &#8220;David can tell you that my fuse is very short, and the worst thing about my temper is that David is very rational about things, [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":193855,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/c.ndtvimg.com\/2024-12\/uv50v9eo_elton-_625x300_12_December_24.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[619],"tags":[151873,103088,1847,151872,73936,496,6860,10170,151874,66],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193854"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=193854"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193854\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":193856,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/193854\/revisions\/193856"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/193855"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=193854"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=193854"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=193854"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
