Looking at their friends, relatives, work colleagues, sometimes it becomes annoying that they are more attractive in appearance, have a more successful career, a happy personal life, a large and beautiful house. The very idea that people are openly jealous of each other is unpleasant. Envy can not only cause irritation and dislike, but also plunge the envious into depression. Learn to suppress feelings of jealousy.
Instructions
Step 1
Analyze the situation, look at yourself from the outside and determine: what you lack in life and what you are dissatisfied with. Be honest with yourself and admit that you really envy other people, but are willing to fight this negative feeling.
Step 2
Communicate more closely with the person you are so jealous of. Everything has a price and, most likely, you will be surprised to find out that not everything is as rosy as it seemed. You may learn that the flip side of success is stress, health problems, or an uncomfortable personal life, i.e. something that makes you look at the situation in a completely different way. Thus, today your object of envy may be on the crest of a wave, and tomorrow at the very bottom of the social ladder. Therefore, comparing yourself to someone else is a thankless task and a waste of time.
Step 3
Channel envy in a positive direction, realize that envy can be useful. Let envy become an incentive for you to new victories and achievements. If envy did not exist, people would be content with little, there would be no need to strive for success, self-realization and financial well-being. It is good "white envy" that becomes the engine of most successful business projects and is the basis of healthy competition.
Step 4
Start small, make a step-by-step list, and get started! Have you wanted to learn something for a long time? Stop procrastinating and sign up for courses. Tired of your unloved job? Maybe you should change your activity or turn your hobby into a profitable business. Change your style or get a new hairstyle. Even small changes can beautify and fill your life with vivid impressions. Stop looking at other people, go ahead and boldly realize your dreams and desires.
