Is there anyway to get over jealousy?

[Shookethtothecore]

Hello,
I’m not proud of this, and looking to help myself. I’m looking for recommendations of books I could read or something like that.
I often find myself with feelings of jealousy. Not at all in relationships, but with other people’s good fortune. I would never let them see, but it’s not a good feeling to have. I am wondering if I can teach myself out of this trait?

Aim at fixing whatever you feel is lacking in your life, that causes you to envy others. What do you not have, that you wish you had right now? More money? More time? Can you get up and make that happen?

As I'm sure you know, it's a road to unhappiness counting other peoples' blessings instead of your own. At least you admit it though - I've known of people blatantly like this who can't admit it at all. Even when it's apparent in the way they talk about others.

If you actively takes steps to resolve what you feel is missing, alongside addressing the jealousy, then things should get better.

If what's causing your envy is something you can do nothing about, then counselling to come to terms with it is a start.

Thank you. We are very lucky, I am a sahm and I feel it stems from other people’s achievements and how I feel they look down at mine. I’m happy with my decision to be a sahm, but it does lack in personal fulfilment and gets very lonely.
These envious feelings are aweful and I will be working hard to stop them.
