Yes, and I would also describe myself as a very envious person. I have a lot of disdain for those who are better off than me, especially if they are very similar to me. Like the description says, I feel that I'm no better or worse than other people, so I deserve all the good things others get.

Another reason why Leisurely doesn't match at all on the e-gram is these feelings are associated with the 3w4 and 4w3 types. In the movie Amadeus, Salieri displays this behavior. He never attacks Mozart directly, but tries to undermine him through covert activity.

I think the Leisurely style, in its pure form, has some resentment towards those who are better off, but I think if the person also has a lot of Self-Confident in their style, they may be more aggressive in their attacks against others. By this I mean acts like sabotaging another's success, instead of just wishing bad luck on others.

I also think Aesop's fable about the Fox who couldn't get the grapes and consoled himself with "they were probably sour anyways" expresses the attitude of the Leisurely person.
