How to deal with jealousy
Someone asked for advice on Facebook.
1. Gratitude List
write out all that you do have. Imagine a starving African child taking your place. What would they be grateful for?
2. Atchevment List
write down all you have achieved in life. I'm guessing you can walk, talk, read. Use them to start your list if you're struggling.
3. Unknown Unknowns
your jealous of what you know, but what about all that you don't know. Would really you trade your life now knowing that you'd also have to take on these unknown unknowns?
4. Weakness
jealous is an anger towards others, targeted at yourself. It makes you weaker, as a result you continue to put yourself into a worse position.
5. Growth
what would you need to do to get yourself into a similar position? Maybe you need to go to the gym. Maybe you need to study. Maybe you need to show more kindness. Find out what you need to do and do it.
6. What did they do successfully?
Someone won where you failed. why? Find the real reasons and you will find your path forward.
7. Ask Better Questions
Are you asking 'why am I such a loser?' Why? That leads to a list of reasons confirming why your a loser which in turn will make you feel crap. Instead ask 'how can I become the person who gets X?' 'what do I need to stop doing?' ask Better Questions, get better results.
