Being jealous is good?

'' Jealousy is just lack of self confidence''

Hello guys,

 How are you? AM hoping you are doing fine in this stressful life, especially for teenagers and don't worry, I know adults have many issues too, am not denying it 'laughs' sorry for my poor attempt of joking.

So my today's topic is being jealous and comparing ourselves with others.

I don't know that whether it's only me that feels these things or you guys too are on the same boat like me, but any how when I see others achieving cool stuffs which I also want, I get jealous easily it's not like that I wish bad things for them, but good things for me.

It is just that I feel why the hell I don't get those things. Sometime's  am envious of my friends and even relatives, I know right now am looking like a bad person, yeah this is the truth of my life. When you do a lot of hard work and still you don't get the desire result it makes me upset.

For e.g. If one gets the 1st place and you are not, though you did the hard work it torments me.

And also when you have social pressure on your shoulders and your elder's expectations the situation becomes more difficult. At this phase the comparison thing comes and boom we built them worse for ourselves. But then we are forgetting one thing that this matter should make you better not bitter. Because now I just realized and make myself stick to it that am just seeing the  rewards of others not in their hardships, maybe they are grafting much, much more than me, I don't know the articles they are sacrificing to get the work done.  I am sitting eating cookies, watching movies and not doing any productive work and still want that I should also have those things, then this is utterly stupid of me, who am I fooling around. It's necessary that we must indeed to ourself.

So now I made a peace with this, yes being jealous is a good thing because it pushes you to move your ass to do work not for daydreaming and procrastinating. If you want something go get it whatever it takes you to make it yours don't be afraid of failure because now I know if I failed then also it'll give me wisdom which, is much much important then those materialistic things. So yes by this now I am signing off.
