The amount of times that when it comes down to brass tacks, the people that I've had to deal with this repetitively about, it usually is about what attention they're not getting or that somebody else gets more attention.

At the end of the day, what's really happening on more of a spiritual multidimensional level is that your scarcity is causing you to not be able to trust in the unfolding of things, right?

You can't trust that

when it's the right time, it will happen for you.

Or just because this person's getting something doesn't mean that I'm never going to get it.

So you end up often being pushy, pressuring you, right?

You're going to advocate for fairness and you want what you want, but really you're almost like pushing people to give it to you instead of waiting to see what happens naturally.

So in a way,

These people often are tempted to play God, right?

They stand up for themselves in air quotes.

They advocate and they're pushing for something that maybe that person would have naturally given them.

But now that you're advocating for it in a victim centric way, they're like, oh, I don't know if I really want this around me.

When jealousy is in operation, if somebody receives something, you may actually feel like maybe that was meant to be yours or now you're not going to get something.

When you are operating in a place of faith and trusting whatever your spiritual belief system is, you can operate much more from a what is meant to be will be.

And if I'm meant for this, it will come to me.

I don't have to force somebody or to

hold somebody emotionally hostage so that I get what I think I deserve.

This goes back to, I know I talked about it, I think on the Darvo episode, my experience of people who give gifts to get something in return.

And it may be an unpopular opinion, but I truly believe you shouldn't give a gift to get something in return.

You should give a gift because you want to give a gift.
