Why we should pity jealous people?




Jealousy is a sting in your heart and soul.

You want something that others have. 

You wish something that belongs to you accord your beliefs, but someone stole it from you. 

You wish to move someone from your spot because his place is not there; he is level under you.


A positive person streams to reach the aim. When your head is full of plans and when your schedule is busy, you have no time to check other's lives. You will check what is important to you and connect with you.

Recently a woman made a comment under my book even she did not read it. Her eyes stuck in my cover and title and she said that sounds like a horrible book. Personally, I would feel embarrassed to comment on something I did not read. It just showed the level of her intelligence and bad manners. And do you know when she commented? On Saturday, when people get rest from the week and have a relaxing time. 

Envious and jealous people often use a weekend to throw their daily frustrations. Some of us are having fun at weekends, others check social networks to provoke. If you are a lonely loser, you will use the weekend to make video calls, to troll, or insult, because nobody called you in real life so someone must pay for this. 

How jealousy affects you?

This feeling is a thorn that stabs you to the heart. You compare yourself with others, even try to copy them, hoping for a day when you will win. The extreme cases will wish someone to get hurt or even die because your object is an obstacle that must be removed. The quote of jealous people is:" If I can't make success, nobody else will."

Imagine when your ex-boyfriend finds someone new. If you broke up painfully, you will not be happy to see him with another girl. A mature person will cross over it. This is a pastime. A jealous person will spend days asking for feedback, revenge, or at least a small satisfaction because your relationship failed. 

Why we should pity jealous people?

Jealousy will slow down your progress.

Jealousy will steal your time.

Jealousy will give points to your rivals, they know you are thinking about them.


What is a cure for jealousy?

Hard work. When you have a busy schedule, it focuses on this. 

Success. Celebrating your success will raise your self-esteem.

Supportive people around you. You know that someone is happy because you are progressing.

Beloved partner. If your partner holds your side, you have no reason to be jealous.


The point of jealousy is the fact that you want something that others have, but you are suffering because you can't get it. That is why jealousy is a weakness because it turns you into a fragile target.

Should we respond to negative reviews?

Recently I had a discussion in my social media about negative ratings. There was a situation in Goodreads, where I got two negative reviews on my two books. The point was in the way how the ratings were set up. First rating for my book "Body in the waves" was placed under 5-star review from another reviewer. While the reviewer praising my book, the troll came under to say "This is really bad book." Second rating was described as " Poor author needs writing lessons." Both reviews broke standards of reviewing, because there is no visible evidence that book was downloaded in Kindle unlimited or purchased. It was a clear troll act from a new page, without a profile photo and with a nickname. I reported this to Goodreads and they responded me they are processing this. Meanwhile, I heard from other authors that Goodreads failed to do anything about trolling.  In these terms, Goodreads should delete such profiles and forbid the access because of breaking rules. T...

Why the refund is damaging indie authors?

I understand someone can be disappointed with a book. It is like I was disapointed with my trousers online and returned it. What makes a difference, my trousers were 40 euros. The book was 2.49 cents. This makes return funny, because what can you do with this money? Some readers don't understand story behind the refund. The author will get minus royalties. - 0.13 c in my Kindle report, that will vanish when someone else buy the book. The situation happens. Someone accidentaly clicked and bought a book. A random customer wants a refund. Maybe it was not a random move. Maybe the customer clicked, bought and did not like the book. When you don't like the book choose another options, instead of damaging authors. Write a negative review. Write negative one star rating. Don't purchase another books from this author. Or, maybe to reconsider and read it, again? If you write negative reviews or rate it with 1 or 2 stars, you are making a favor to authors. You are moving algorithms i...

Five myths about promo sites

Recently I asked for a featured Bookbub deal for one of my books. I got response that my book should be free priced and my expense would be 230 dollars. This is really funny, because I could expect people grab my book for free and give me one star (as it happens when books are available for everyone). To pay such amount of money would be waste and without a purpose. I am mix of traditional and indie author. Having a publisher, but not bestseller books, I am looking for ways to increase my book sales. Promo sites like Bookbub are very expensive and they offer their deals for 25% books from authors who applied for this. I had an insight to author's books who grabbed Bookbub deals. It works will authors who are already selling a good amount of their books. In general, promo sites are not working for favor of indie authors. These are five myths about promo sites: Promo sites give many readers. It is not true, because you will get visibility and many trolls, but not readers. Promo sites...
