“Jealousy is an emotion, and like other emotions, it can be controlled. You can choose to not give in to your jealous feelings. You can choose to be happy with what you have instead of wishing you had what someone else does.

When you feel that green monster being roused, you have two options. You can either feed it with thoughts such as, ‘Why can’t I look like that/have that/be that?’ and then feel really bad about your life. Or you can say, ‘Wow, that’s awesome for that person, good for them,’ and go about your life.”
