By George Matthew Adams (1913)

You who read this little talk, have Things locked up in your Brain that nobody else on earth has or ever has had. And you hold the Key, too. Although the Almighty is in a big business, creating millions of Human Beings, year after year, nobody has ever yet discovered a duplicate Human Being. Every Human Being is an “original.” So, if there is any Envying to be done, let the other fellow do it. YOU —

Be too Big to bother with Envy.

Now, Envy is begrudging some other fellow his Good Fortune. To be Envious is to stagnate your own growth. The Envy that you have for the Winning of somebody else takes away in just that measure Winning on your own part. Envy is Self-robbery.

Be too Big to bother with Envy.

Call to your own mind the Big doers. Are they Envious people? No — they are too Busy to Envy. If they took the time to Envy they could not have used their best abilities to Achieve.

Be too Big to bother with Envy.

You would never Envy if you would but realize the Accumulated Power that comes by profiting from the Success of other people. Be glad of the Big Luck of somebody else. Be wise enough to let its Inspiration lift you up. Individual Success is not stationary. It has no limitations. Congratulate your friend to-day and he may be put in the position to congratulate you to-morrow and be happy of the chance.

Be too Big to bother with Envy.
