After posting a status update of myself sipping from a freshly picked coconut on the beach in Fiji I noted how a few “I *really* hate you now” , casual comments on my wall reflected something much deeper. Intense jealousy. I have been on the other side of the fence. Having 4 cents and being $70,000 in debt nearly a decade ago I secretly despised the fact that some good buddies of mine were living their dreams.

Have you ever been in a position where you had to negotiate something? Perhaps you tried to get a better deal on something, perhaps tried to make two arguing friends see sense. In a negotiation situation it can be difficult to know what to do or say. A negotiation is like a game, if you go in without having a playing strategy, or not knowing the rules, you’ll find succeeding far more difficult. The trick is, to start off knowing what you’re going to do and what strategy to use.

If we had made an alternate choice somewhere down the line, where would we be now? Many individuals who envy and strive for the fortune of others are themselves insecure. [1] That should not be
