Using your Envy well.

Hi friends, how has your week been?
Well thank God it's another weekend and a lot of us can finally rest after a busy week.

We'll be looking at a character traits that is very common among people these days.
It's the issue of envy.

What exactly is Envy?

Meriam Webster diction defines envy as that painful and resentful awareness of the privilege enjoyed by another joined with a desire to possess the same advantage.

Envy in the real sense is a negative emotion but how we respond to it determines what actions we take and the consequences that follow.

Envy is like an alarm system on our inside that wakes us up to the things we wish we had but hadn't taken notice of or made much effort to achieve or haven't understood how to achieve it.

This alarm always goes off the moment we see someone having that very thing we so much desire.

Now according to Psychology Today, envy can be benign or malignant.

What this means is that your envy can either drive you to do what it takes to achieve that which you have seen someone achieve or you can become angry, bitter and start to hate that person and possibly even plan to do something to harm him or her.

This is why it's important today that anytime you feel that tinge of envy at someone's progress that you call yourself back to order.
Think it through and ask yourself why the envy and what you can do to also better your lot.

Use that envy positively to your advantage.
