How not to steer up envy?

Simply shutting up is probably the best method for preventing envy.

That's right, we all tend to speak far too much about ourselves and it's so difficult to refrain from tooting one's horn.


Yet, when we blurt out something about our new car, a bigger house, a fancy carbon-fiber mountain-bike or the smart and successful kids we have, we often steer up envy and of course resentment.

The solution therefore is to lay low, said little, or better yet, almost nothing, and we won't steer up that anger and envy that poison most relationships.
