Jealously

There are several layers of jealousy

• Jealous of friends, family, coworkers, weight, personality, boyfriends, girlfriends, husbands, wives.
• Jealous of someone’s home, car, social media account, careers, and so forth.

Comparing ourselves and watching others succeed enjoying the advantages we desire drives jealousy because we are not satisfied with life.

Jealousy develops early from not being assured of love and learning the importance of loving self.

Our environment shapes us and our relationships (healthy or unhealthy). If we experience disappointment, hurt, and pain more than we receive praise, value, acknowledgment, appreciation, and thanks, we lose self-confidence and low self-esteem set in, which also contributes to jealousy.

We seek positive or negative attention to gain validation once we allow sad and miserable feelings to control our minds. We then lose confidence and do not feel as secure because of the bitter and resentful feelings.

How do we deal with or overcome jealousy?

• Build habits that make you joyful and work on daily.
• Change the perception by visualizing yourself having everything you want and living your best life – see it, feel it, and own it.
• Accept the moment for what it is, let go of analyzing others, love the moment, feel the moment happy and sad, and know you got this.
• Discover you by writing down your love for life, the people you admire, not those you are jealous of.
• Understand your logic by keeping a watchful eye on the people you are surrounding yourself.
• Be cautious of people who emulate and copy you, boldly flaunt, boldly post, always dishing the dirt, gossiping about others because they are the ones who are desperately trying to gain approval, respect, and prove they are worthy.

DEVELOP SELF-IMAGE – LOVING AND RESPECTING SELF – SURROUND YOURSELF WITH LOVE – ENCOURAGE AND SUPPORT OTHERS.
