What Peter taught Derek was to use constant traits (not so much anger in general, as anger in Derek's specific case) to maintain his focus. Scott wasn't particularly good at that, so he used love.....and fell to pieces after he finally accepted that Allison dumped his ass (sigh....freaking Scott) before his mother convinced him to use his sense of self as his anchor.

Well, I had a point. I know I did....

Ah right, constant traits, emotions, are just another kind of anchor, not an alternative to meditation and annoying little catch phrases. Though probably better (at least in my opinion).

Also, kind off topic, Kate has been a werejaguar how long? And still has temper tantrums on a full moon?

Nearly a year. But she didn't have an awesome boyfriend to focus on, or an even more awesome mom giving her sage bits of wisdom to "be her own anchor" or even anyone tossing her cute little mantras to use. *shrugs* plot hole/inconsistency?
