Re:Is envy a good thing? by rokhayakebe on Sunday September 02, 2007 @12:22AM (#49361)
Yes it is. It is actually a gr8 thing. Being envious is nothing but desiring the same thing someone else has. Of course I want what the sergey and Larry have. I certainly want what the zentel guys have. I also want what the anywhere FM guys have. But it is not that I want their product or money, but I want to be where they are. I certainly do not want them not to have what they have. Now that would have been horrible. As long as you want to have the same as the other guy without taking away from his success then it is ok to want it. Actually I would advise you to wake up every morning and tell yourself I am going to build a company that people want just like anywhere.FM and zenter and delicious and flickr and all the other successes did. I can recall PG saying to us being successful mean getting the founders rich
