        To feel hatred towards a person who you feel has more than you and a better life. I think people learn to envy by watching all these rap videos and kim kardisian bullshit. You program your subconcious to feel this envy in your heart. For example if you watch rich and [famous people] all day and you come into the presence of one and they show you how they live you would feel [intimidated] and ashamed for nothing. People who brag have low self esteem. Learn to imagine your self in the mind instead of thinking about how rich Justin Bieber is and what he has and meet him and hell envy you for being strong not like most of his kick ass fans and [fake friends] who prey on him to get money
