Birthday Post #20 ~ Don't Envy Someone Else's Lawn - Just Water Your Own

Hiya dudes! Happy Tuesday!


I've got another lesson for you today.

Don't envy someone else's lawn - just water your own.


If you haven't learned this one yet, you need to take it to heart, because it's true, and one of the most important lessons I've come across so far.


Envy is lethal. Jealousy is cancer. It isn't healthy, at all. It will eat you from the inside out, until there's nothing left but a nasty, rotting mess.


No one wants that, so instead, quit while you're ahead. Quit wishing you had something someone else has. Quit being upset because you don't have something you want. Quit - just quit it. Give it up.


If you spent as much energy working on your own life as you did wishing you had someone else's, you'd probably already be there. You don't need to wish you had someone's life, you can have it yourself! Just put your energy into your own stuff, and ignore the rest.


Don't wish you had something else, otherwise you'll lose what you do have, while getting no where.


It's a lose lose situation to envy, so instead, just enjoy what you have, and work hard for what you want.


Besides, someone probably wishes they had something you have, and if you're a good friend, you'd probably tell them the same thing.
