Why do I get so Jealous?

jealousy sucks, I hear you. I have dealt with the same issues. It has to do with being insecure about one's self. Since you cant control other people's actions, you have to focus on those whom you do have control over, namely, you. Basically, as tough sounding as it is, you can sit around and watch others succeed and hate them for it, or you can get motivated and change your life in the way you want it to be. You are not powerless, you can accomplish your goals, you can have what they have, or at least, have something that is right for you to have even if its not exactly the same. It is much easier for us to look at the lives of others and get jealous than it is for us to look at our own lives and make changes to them. but in the end, it is the ONLY thing you can do if you want to stop feeling so jealous.
