All of us want some thing in life. Be it money, become rich, have beautiful wives, big manhood and many more. Most of us are ambitious and wants something of extra out of life. However we do have our own personal limitation which prevent us from doing more than we are capable of.
Therefore we strive to make the most of our ability to achieve something worthwhile. To certain extend there are some even dare and prepare to sacrifice.
It is human nature to feel envious of someone else achievement or gain i.e. richness, money, luxury...we all do. Little do we know that most of these are not easily acquire without much effort. You can't get good examination result just by being lazy and sitting doing nothing. We need to work for it. If you have a successful business, you have to do even more, wake up as early as others. You must be highly motivated and fired up to do better in business so you can earn more than usual. Therefore feeling envy of their success is really a bloody waste of your time. You are better off doing something useful. On the other hand, it is wise to learn from their achievement. Find what formula do they use to achieve great wealth?
I once have this good idea that no one ever thought of doing that will make me a lot of money but as I said, it is not a simple process to do. I do not have the desire and determination to put forward the idea and make it work. In the end someone has figure it out because I’m too slow to take action. But instead of learning from this incident, I feel envious of his achievement.
By right, I should have tried to work out how he did it and if that route would suit me. What are the criteria, technique, and behavior and so on that enables him to be successful and wealthy? Ask myself why am I a failure? I should have used his achievement to inspire me to be successful instead of envy for him. You know what, to help ease the pain of envious, i started to make excuses why I didn't do it, why I cannot achieve it e.g. I don't have the startup capital, I don't have the know how, I'm not that business minded, I'm not that clever, I'm rather stupid actually..etc a lot of excuses. If you feel the same, stop feeling sorry for yourself. No body can help you but yourself. You have the power to choose your destiny. You can choose to be rich or poor. You decide what you want to be not someone else. Stop giving excuses.
However, in rare cases the "envy" do and may sometime help to give you motivation and drive to help achieve more or better result. When you feel envy, you start to think how can you be more better, useful, clever, brilliant, come up with better idea and technique, ......But you have to be careful not to allow "envy" to control you or else you will ends up nothing. Guess what you back to square one.
