#69 How to deal with envy and jealousy and why they are important





Yes, sometimes we are envious of someone, because he/she has something that we do not have. We have grown up hearing that it is bad to be envious and jealous. So, whenever we feel envy and jealousy, we push this feeling aside, or even judge ourselves for it.


What makes you envious? Seeing other people who have

  • A happy relationship? A family? Kids?

  • A good job? A higher position? A higher salary?

  • Material things like a bigger house, a car or jewellery?

  • A different lifestyle?


What I want you to understand: Being envious of anything of the above (or something else) is nothing bad! Instead, it is a very important indicator, what your real desires in life are!


I am sharing with you also my personal insights what my own envy told me about becoming a mother, focussing on my career and doing public speaking.


What is it that makes you envy? Use it to define the right targets for you! Whatever you are lacking now – remember that you just done have it YET!


If you need guidance to define your targets in the right way, check out the episode that I made about reaching the own goals:
