Feeling Envious / Jealous of Others. Overcome Envy /Jealousy




Feeling Envious / Jealous of Others. Overcome Envy /Jealousy

Envy is the feeling of the displeasure produced by the advantage or prosperity of others. The person we envy has personal attributes (such as beauty, patience, or intelligence), possessions (such as a car, a house), or positions (like being the boss) that we lack but desire. We envy both what other people are and what they have.

Envy is wanting to destroy what someone else has. Not just wanting it for yourself, but wanting other people not to have it. It’s a deep-rooted issue, where you are very, very resentful of another person’s well-being – whether that be their looks, their position or the car they have. It is silent, destructive, and pure malice.

The emotion of envy is closely related with:

  • Jealousy

  • Despair at others’ advantages

  • Grudge

  • Destructive attacks and meanness

  • Dissatisfaction and hostility

  • Rivalry and Resentment

  • Covetousness

  • Spiteful rage and criticism

  • Preoccupation with injustice

  • Unfair distributions of wealth

Most people are likely to experience envy in the workplace. Promoting an employee, recruiting a new employee, placing two similar people side by side in the same team may trigger envy.

It is hard to imagine any human being completely without envy. Some individuals, of course, are, for whatever reasons, much more envious than others. But all humans probably experience some envy.
