Inhaltsangabe

"Throughout recorded human history," contends Robert Sheaffer, "the ebb and flow of the love of achievement and the resentment against its successes have been major forces behind the rise and fall of civilizations and empires."

The opportunity to improve one's lot in life is there for the taking, insists Sheaffer. All that is required is a little ambition, a little self-discipline, and a little elbow grease--all of which are characteristics of achievers. If the resentful would invest half as much energy and effort in setting and working toward positive goals as they do in trying to get something for nothing, they would be amazed at how successful they could become.

Achievers have earned their rewards by working for them, and if the resentful want a better life, they can do the same.
