You only envy other people´s lives, careers, success, relationships, accomplishments, etc., when you think you can´t have what they have, when you think of yourself as incompetent. Try changing this envy to inspiration. Inspiration is a tool. It can become your daily reminder that you, too, can have what others have. Apply it with consciousness, so moments of comparison, envy, and jealousy will become your fuel to improve yourself.
