Bad things are good too!

All bad things are not actually bad.

Jealousy when channeled properly, becomes a great source of motivation.
Jealous of someone you like? Good source, work harder to get those things you are jealous of.
Jealous of someone you don't like? Much better source of motivation, but needs more taming.

Also, having people that don't like you/hate you/say bad things about you?
well.........it makes one(at least me) appreciate the good friends/the people who care about you more. Again a source of motivation for you to work harder and prove them wrong.

But 'easier said than done!'

And I am trying.

True, that there is always someone who is gonna be better than me and its an unending quest. But, isn't it what life is?

Well, all that you said is true, however the pain and horror and shock that you go through can prevent you from getting motivated at all.

Which is kind of the point, sigh, you know what I'm talking about.

Also, I was not the anonymous. I truly wasn't.
