Envy is poisonous to human relations:

- Friedrich Hayek said envy fuels collectivism, leading to The Road to Serfdom.

- Murray Rothbard described envy as the root of *egalitarian tyranny*—attacking success rather than celebrating it.

-Nietzsche called envy the core of *ressentiment*—the weak seeking to tear down the strong.

Honesty, hard work, and humility transform self-destructive envy into a highly productive willingness to compete, learn, and appreciate what life has to offer.

So consider this your wake up call: that thing you know you should be doing right now, go do it, again and again and again.
