I'm not convinced that such a state exists. I'd say hating others' success uncovers a fairly conflicted view of my own success. If I "loved being successful", I'd be beyond being threatened about it. If I, say,
wanted to be successful, but thought I couldn't be, it'd be natural to hate others' success.
I assert that anything you hate or criticize in another has its roots in your being unable to swallow that quality in yourself. I have yet to hear a convincing counterexample of that.
