Envy is a restraining force. To envy indicates a lack of confidence in one's ability to acquire what he envies; hence, it prevents the development of initiative to obtain what is envied.
Fred White's realization that, even without riches, he could
enjoy the same blessings which the wealthy enjoyed gave him a great sense of peace. He no longer envied his employer, but found that he was growing mentally and could begin thinking in terms of self-improvement.
As White took on stature as a man of affairs, his employer paid more attention to him and began lifting him up higher and higher in his company.
