How about generational wealth 😭

I would suggest to take a pen and notebook and write down the best of things that you wish to happen to the person you are envious of. Visualise them being the best or successful. Wish them all joy and happiness. Write it all on a notebook, visualise it and enjoy the joy from it. Make it a habit. And over some days you will get over it.

This video is now in my gym playlist

I'm greatfull for dr peterson❤

Well you can reason away envy. You have been hurt and the envy is actually a defence against that pain. You have to locate your core pain and grieve it to heal. The envy will evaporate during this process of grief.

I can’t control this envy

Jesus he really hit the nail on the head there

I envy how my friend is effortlessly cruising through life: way above average salary along with plenty of spare time, easy going, has a lot of friends, helps his family - all that while he is younger than me. He's an awesome guy! But I started being so jealous of him lately, it drives me nuts..

"I cried because I had no shoes until I met a man who had no feet " I remind my self with this quote.

Envy with the letters reorganized makes vyne I thought that was a pleasant state

Yikes. I'm struggling with envy...My friends have it all. They get to travel to European countries during the summer. I've never traveled outside the USA before. One of my besties is going to Italy and Turkey in two weeks. It's going to be hard to support her "trip success" while she's away. I don't think I can even look at her Instagram

Key word : « deeply »

It’s not that I don’t know what I truly want, it’s the fact that I know exactly what I wan’t but I am also realistic enough to understand I can’t get it so it feels like I failed and it just doesn’t seem fair that I see this one person I used to know living the life I wanted while knowing that she is not even half of a good person as me. She likes to look down on others and openly mock them. It just doesn’t make sense how life seems to reward shitty, privileged people while people who are good seem to suffer the most.

Not gonna lie, that helped. I openly admit that I am envious of attractive people as well, but i am constantly understanding it, and finding ways to feel better and less sad or angry.

I envy their health.

I envy about people that still have a whole family and people like my boyfriend that is rich and can go to anywhere they want buy expensive shit have a very expensive vacation and shi while im sat here with my family with each other living their life and not really bonding together and shi and it's hard i feel really sad i don't know cause i get envy a lot to people that have what i want that i can't achieve and stuff and it's eating me and i get angry and shit.

This is the side of Jordan I love. He seems intimidating when he speaks to large audiences but when it comes to one on one livestreams he seems so genuine and kind

This video is very helpful 💖.

A colleague once mentioned a really powerful statement: "Comparison is the thief of joy." This is absolutely true and it's something I struggle with day in and day out. I'm constantly comparing myself to better looking women. Thankfully I don't have a social media account! But this video is super helpful! Jordan's wisdom is so important in the deeply broken and dark world we live in!

I loved this, v helpful. Julia Cameron who wrote The Artist's Way sums this up as 'green is the colour of envy, but its also the colour of hope.' I'm struggling with envying someone who seems to be doing well in a career I've been working towards for a long time. I have had a really difficult few years with multiple family bereavements and episodic suicidal depression. In between the losses I pick my work up and start working on my goals again. But the multiple losses and all of the grief meant I wasn't able to so far build momentum to launch my career. I'll keep going, focusing on my own progress rather than the success of others (which often isn't all it seems, as social media is a place where people present an image that isn't always the full picture.)

I feel like a lucky (or very intelligent) select few have found the key and thus a way to do what they were meant to do and make a ton of money doing it. I get jealous of those people who seem to have things all sorted while I am kind of aimless other than the goal of finding more success.

I’d like to have a better looking wife, I’d like to be handsome. Not to be such an asshole, not so poor and not so lazy.

My mistakes have brought me here. Stupid, arrogant, antisocial and pathetic. And now envy and jealousy… I need to change or this will consume me

Envy comes from comparision to others. The world is rough and mean. As Jordan Peterson said, "the world is against you . . . obviously." But as I told my own subscribers, many times the greatest enemy in life can be yourself. And you make yourself an enemy by comparision to others. If you make 80K a year and have 200K in the investment arenas you will feel badly if you have a friend who makes 250K and has a million in his. But you will feel good about yourself if you compare yourself to someone who makes 30K and has nothing in his accounts. But maybe that 250K person works 80 hours a week and hasn't had a vacation in ten years. The point is, your journey is yours. How much you want to work and gain to get the greatest benefits you can from your short time on earth---and most of those benefits, my friends, are not financial. Hope this helps someone----Charles

I am envious of people around me. I have a huge love for hairs and it takes up my time each day. I don't have a business or money to even start. I so badly want to sell hairs. I see my friends having the money to buy hairs. And not only hairs, anything they want. Now, it's more than hairs. It's just having to take care so well of my siblings and mom. I owe it to myself and my dad, I love him so much. Rip. I am a freelance writer. I also love love to write. Envy makes me cry so much. Things are going so slow in my life and I can't do what I want to do. I am a good person but things are still slow. And envy is killing me. But you have told me to hold my ground and look deeper. I have found that I need to put in the work and focus on me to grow. No matter how slow. I have seen the dark side that tells me, oh, I am not doing this one right. I want to do it right. So I can get all the things I want to get. I will. There's hope in envy. God is my hope. My family is my hope. And I'm taking it one step at a time. ❤️ I hope to come back to edit this and say I made it. 😂👍

I needed this

And red lights, I tell myself to “just be patient and wait”

I’ve learned to ask myself this; “how many times has something actually happened during previous anxiety attacks?” Nothing has ever happened?…Exactly.

Wow! This has been eye opening. It’s sickening when it’s not apart of who you are as a person. “Pursue what you need to pursue”…one step at a time.

Yes to everything you said. Thanks for making and sharing this video. It’s almost like agoraphobia has a playbook. I have the same exact thoughts as you. I’m female, 40y/o... been having agoraphobia to some degree for 25 years and I like others, wonder if this is my life...constantly having to push boundaries. It’s like if your not pushing out, you’re actually losing ground. I’ve been exhausted for a while now, and for a few years, just kind of gave up trying, staying only in safe zone with no try. I drink too to rid myself of anxiety. I’m just starting to work on everything again. How are you doing now?

I am with you... YES THE WATER! I cannot go anywhere without water, been putting off medical appointments. my fear is being too far away from home and traffic. We got slammed by Ida last year and we had to evacuate, I dreaded this always living in south Louisiana. Before that, I was unable to drive freeway or go more than 20 minutes away🥲But we went 6 hours away and no panic! I did have beer though😅 we left at 3 in the morning bc hurricane evacuations are notorious for miles of traffic jams. Now we’re in august again and I’m a little nervous. It’s harder for me to practice interstate when I’m not forced, but that push helped A LOT! I always have my husband with me of course.

What a relief!!

Nice vox amp!

I've always wanted to get a mororcicle. Recently all of my friends Got there own bikes and I'm the only one left without one. I Just can't afford it right now and it's killing me that all my friends are going to have fun and ride aroud the whole summer break and I won't be able to join them. It's killing me inside and I don't know what to do.

This video helped me. 4 years of college and all that hard work didn't pay off. I hope I get over this and be happy with just graduating...

I am on a journey I have lost a stone two pounds I have physical disabilities but I am getting there I do get days where I feel defeated 😔 I didn't know that about losing weight because I eat very healthy and I try to move around but for some reason my weight was not going down

I am struggling with it because I have disabilities and I just want to make my house easier so that I can do things it's very hard for me to do things around my house because I don't have things that help my disability I think I am envious of people who don't seem to appreciate what they have. I am trying to focus on the Kingdom of heaven and the wonderful things that God has provided. I am thankful for my meals for my warm but there is this sense of fear but I can't just do the things that I need.

protect this mans spirit.

These are the exact words i needed to hear, thank you uploader!

Yes I needed a water bottle

Yes to the water. Problem with sitting in traffic. Live in London, all roads busy. In Pandemic all roads were changed. Restricted all back roads so now gridlocked to get out so no one can get n help. It takes weeks to get courage to do a petrol trip. Used to love driving. Not anymore but public transport a no go

Are you on any other platforms

envy fucking sucks dude, its a silent killer of the soul...

i am envy of my friend who lives in america and i want to be there

i always have to take water too lol

You can’t get a family though can you

Going down unfamiliar roads, yellow lights, and turn lanes (the arrow rules seem to be different at each light) are my triggers. Unpredictability and a lack of escape possibilities is a recipe for disaster with me.

📌

Yes I moved to a more busy area , more lights and just bigger roads really hang me up. I’ve always been a back road person .
