Dealing with Jealousy or Envy | Malayalam Motivational Video | Dr. Mary Matilda
As Harold Coffin says, “Jealousy is the art of counting someone else’s blessings instead of your own.” Jealousy or Envy is an innate emotion that is hidden inside every human being but isn’t actually essential for one’s wellness. The feeling of Jealousy or Envy may happen in the majority of human relations-from sibling rivalry for parental attention to coworkers competing to impress their manager. Evolutionary Psychologists recommend that one should address this emotion with utmost care instead of trying to discard or suppress it. Also called mental cancer, Jealousy or Envy is the most bitter of the negative emotions we feel inside ourselves. It is a signal or our wake-up call to insecurity, weakness, or obsession in any valued human relation. We often feel jealous of the people associated with us for no reason. It's funny that the only possible reason for our jealousy maybe because they are better performers than us. As a famous quote says, “Blowing out someone else’s candle doesn’t make yours shine any brighter.” For some of us, Jealousy can also be a driving force to perform better and push our limits. It can inspire to have better self-reflection and help develop healthy internal coping skills. However, if we are always in the grip of jealousy, it may wreak havoc in our lives. In this self-development video, Dr. Mary Matilda explains how to control or overcome jealousy and the ways to reduce the harmful effects of jealousy.
