1-RESENTMENT. When we are angry or bitter toward someone for
an extended period of time over some real or imagined insult, we are harboring
resentrnent. It is a hostile or indignant attitude in response to an alleged affront or personal injury.Try someForgiveness
2-FALSE PRIDE is either feeling better than or feeling less than someone else.Feelings of superiority include preiudice about race, education or religious beliefs, or putting someone else down to make us feel better about ourselves. Feelings of inferiority include self-pity, which is being distressed or unhappy about our own lives, or low self-esteem-the lack of self-worth or self-respect.
The opposite is humility
3-ENVY has to do with things-wanting someone else's possessions.Seek Contentment
4-JEALOUSY has to do with people-being suspicious of a peer or doubting the faithfulness of a friend.Try to Trust
5-SELFISHNESS isconcernonlyfor ourselves, our ownwelfare or pleasure, without regard for, or at the expense of, others. It's a belief that "It's all about me" rather than "How can I best serve Thee-Thy will (not mine) be done."I need to look for un-selfishness
6-LAZINESS means lacking the will or the desire to work. This includes the avoidance of, or the slowness in completing, a task or assignment.
Activity brings me out of this.
7-DISHONESTY involves theft or deception. It includes taking something that doesn't belong to us, cheating someone out of what is rightfully theirs, or lying to or with-holding the truth from somebody.I need to strive for honesty
8-FEAR is being afraid of losing something we have or not getting something we want. It manifests itself in many ways such as phobia, terror, panic, anxiety, uneasiness or worry.A good deal of Faith,right action, & Love helps...
