Faced with gossip and envy, few will be happy. The exceptions are those who run PR companies of various stars - after all, they only play into the hands of speculation, which turns into income. If your plans do not include tabloid pages with your name, and you only dream of a quiet work and a happy family life, then you do not need increased attention from the public.
No need to be afraid
If there are envious people, first of all, you need to stop defending yourself against them. Paradox, you say? In fact, this is a logical decision. Fear of an envious person is an admission that he is a real danger. More fear means more power on the part of the ill-wisher, which means more harm. Ignore jealousy - this is the best solution.
Only take action if the situation is serious. In this case, the ill-wisher is no longer limited to quiet envy, but proceeds to real sabotage. It will no longer be necessary for you to deal with it, but the competent authorities.
Don't brag about your successes
No wonder they say that silence is gold. Why provoke human envy by screaming about your successes at every corner? It is clear that joy is overwhelming, but you need to know with whom it can be shared, and with whom it will only cause anger. Some people are generally better off not knowing what's going on in your life - limit yourself to a narrow circle of relatives and friends in whom you are confident.
This advice especially applies to women, because they always love to boast and without any unnecessary reason. In principle, there is nothing wrong with this, but there are some limitations. Show off new clothes, hairstyles, manicures, but you don't need to praise your friend (lover or husband). After all, a friend will be able to buy herself the same phone as yours, or a new fur coat (whatever), but with an ideal man everything is more difficult - another reason for envy. Sing the praises of your beloved, his mother - the relationship with the mother-in-law after that will be, if not wonderful, then certainly very good.
Compliment more often.
People are not jealous because they are worse. They just have complexes that make others seem luckier, more beautiful and happier. Pure psychology! It also needs to be adopted. If you know that a certain person envies you, give her a compliment, but not tortured, but from the bottom of your heart. Yes, you have a beautiful handbag, but you will never be able to cook such cakes as it is. A trifle, but nice. And you are happy, and your friend has a reason to be proud of herself.
