When you're blessed, the haters come out. When you wear God's blessings well, don't be surprised if it draws jealousy out of people.
If anyone wants to do great work at some point in their lifetime, they must do so knowing that there will be some criticism. Criticism should never be able break you, and if it does, you are probably listening to the wrong critiques. In hearing criticism we have to be able to think about it and take it all in objectively.
Rid yourself of jealousy, for the joys of others shouldn't be a part of your qualms.
Jealousy is a very complex emotion and/or state of being, and it is caused by a variety of actions that usually is caused by a person not seeing any success in their own lives. In life we are able to make choices everyday, and these choices determine the success we see day-by-day, year-by-year, and decade after decade. Many people become jealous when their own journeys lead them to some sort of mediocrity and limited success, not realizing that despising what the next man has will never lead to any sort of reward in their own lives.
Rid yourself of jealousy, for the joys of others shouldn't be a part of your qualms.
One of the deadliest poisons a person can consume in their lifetime is the poison of jealousy. As people we are all blessed with certain talents and certain skills, and what someone else has should never make us jealous, but instead should ignite our own flame for life.
