Choose Abundance Over Jealousy

Many times when we are scrolling social media we see others doing something fun or sharing something they’ve purchased.  Maybe they just achieved a big goal and are celebrating by sharing it with the world.

We start comparing ourselves to what they have done.  We start feeling like we are not enough and put ourselves down.  The name calling starts in our minds; you’re an idiot or why didn’t you think of that?

Often times we can be hit with a tinge of jealousy when we see these posts.  We start thinking, wow, they are having fun and yet I’m stuck here.  I wish I was there or I wish I had that.

Instead of coming from a mindset of lack, think about seeing it from the eyes of abundance.  To be excited for this other person and realize if they have this in their life, it’s possible for me too.

Don’t compare yourself to anyone else.  Be okay with where you are and know that you can achieve great things too.  Be nice to yourself.

Another person’s achievements and what they have does not determine your worth.  Just because they have nice things does not mean that you are not worthy of having them too.

Think of someone you admire because they always see the good in people.  Think about what that says about them.  It means they are a positive person, they have a lot of self esteem, they come from a place of love, compassion, and abundance.

Next think of someone who always finds the bad in someone else and what that says about them.  They are coming from a place of negativity.  They feel afraid, threatened, and hurt.  These people act out with jealousy.

Jealousy does not get you far in life.  You remain in a headspace consumed with negativity.

Be the person that sees the good.  Focus on sending good karma that you are happy for the other person and wish them well. Hoping that they would do the same for you.

Rather than focusing on what you do or do not have choose to come from a place of abundance.  Choose to think positive thoughts of abundance and what this means for you and your life.  Anything is possible.  Know that you are enough and worthy of great things.

Do not fall prey to the made up story in your head.  Those negative thoughts that say you are not deserving or you are not enough.  Ask yourself if those thoughts are facts or just an interpretation.

We all have a story and perception of our own self worth.  Our self worth is not defined by other people.  We define it ourselves.  The only thing that is true about who you are is what you say about yourself.

We are in control of creating the perception and interpretation of life events.  Instead of coming from a place of jealousy in these moments, change your perception.  Everything is energy which becomes infinitely abundant.  Bring more abundance into your life through positive thoughts.

My challenge for you is to acknowledge when you feel a sense of jealousy.  Choose to come from a place of abundance and know that whatever you are feeling jealous of, it is available for you to have if you let it.  Only when you let go of your jealousy will you step into a life full of abundance.
