Karma Means You Don't Get Away With Nothin'

"Try working with this kind of awareness in your life.  If your intention was unskillful or unkind, try changing it and see what happens after a while.  At first you may only experience the results of your previous defensive attitude.  Try responding only when your heart is open and kind.  When you don't feel this way, wait and let the difficult feelings pass.  As the Buddha instructed, let your speech and actions arise gently, with kindly intent, in due season, and to their benefit.  As we pay attention, the fruit of whatever we do, both skillfully and unskillfully, seems to manifest more quickly.  As we study this law of cause and effect we will see that whenever we or someone else acts in a way that is base on grasping, hatred, prejudice, judgment, or delusion, the results will inevitably bring some suffering."
