How to not feel jealous/envious on anyone?.

Introduction

I recently learnt a beautiful lesson behind this topic on how to not feel envious of anyone in your life, including your enemies.

I know in movies, the hero fights with the villain and the hero wins in the movie, but the villain wins the audience’s hearts. But then in reality, if both the hero (you) and the villain exist, what do you do then?

Welcome to my blog, ladies and gentlemen. I am here to speak about my journey of what type of human being I am.

My College Life Journey

So I am currently in my last semester. I have completely observed how life went and how it will be going in the future.

And my college life?

PEAK PLEASURE, HIGH POTENTIAL, AMAZING INTERNAL ACHIEVEMENTS, AND 0 EXTERNAL ACHIEVEMENTS.

I don’t know what to do in scenarios where I see people who are exceeding their growth, portfolio, and their reputation, while there’s me who is thinking what to do in my life.

Yes, I honestly felt this several times, but then I realized one thing.

What if I can achieve more than that?

That’s where passion drives in.

A lot of people hate embarrassments, especially when your peers are your competitors and you feel defeated in front of them.

Handling Defeat and Competition

Imagine you losing in front of them and they are like:

“Haaha lmao! I came in the 3rd place, what about you lmao! Still in the bottom ground or what?”

In these scenes, the speaker may talk without sense or talk out of excitement. That’s external, but not an issue.

Let’s focus on the receiver’s end.

How do you think the receiver should respond to this?

I’m again saying this.

The receiver is YOU.

If you ask me, the solution I can handle is like this:

“Man, I don’t give a damn, bro. My aim was to play in the game. One day I will dust you, bro. GGs for now.”

This is how I decided to handle such situations.

Learning Instead of Feeling Envious

And the fun thing is, don’t feel envious in such scenes.

Learn what they built, did, or how they played depending on the competition.

If they are good friends, ask doubts to them after you congratulate them.

That’s how one grows.

BY NETWORKING.

It doesn’t matter if the winner is someone who you know or don’t know.

What matters is your learning.

And learning to play the game is always the best process mankind will see.

Never stop learning about others and yourself.

Change Your Perspective

You see them carrying the shuttlecock on the ground itself with the racket while you bend yourself down taking the shuttlecock.

One perception is true, that they are better than you.

But what the other perception is, is that you can learn how to do that by practicing it or asking them to teach you.

Everyone Has Their Own Pace

I am telling this once again.

This world ain’t required to be jealous or envious of anyone.

Let people grow at their pace, and you grow at your pace.

It doesn’t matter if you took yearly progress to achieve what you need and they took monthly progress to achieve what they need.

I am now craving external achievements in my life.

But I don’t know when it will happen, but I am confident that I will make it happen.

I am pouring out that emotion over here itself.

Similarly, I know that you guys will make your goals and happiness true.

All it takes is time.

And always remember:

Good things take time.

Jealousy and Growth

Feeling jealous or envious is a good thing, not a bad thing.

Because it tells you indirectly that you are worthless in the initial phase.

But later, when you switch your perspective, you will realize that you can do better than them when you learn from others.

That is why you need to keep updating your surroundings for the betterment of yourself, your society, and your friends.

Final Thoughts

Find out today itself.

Skills you are lacking currently.

Make a list of all of them.

It could be anything.

A language, a badminton skill, dunking in basketball, and lack of knowledge.

Come on, you know about yourself more than me.

Work on them with your comfort.

Are you a monotasker or a multitasker?

Whatever the case, work on it today no matter how pathetic your progress is.

Thank you and have a gr8 day!. Follow and Subscribe to Blaze Mentality to achieve Strength and Greatness.
