But what we're doing is we're looking at what possibly only the first 10 years maximum of our career and thinking this defines the entire race. This defines all of my circumstances from here until I retire.
that is totally not true how someone's beginning looks is not always indicative of how their middle or their end will end up just think about olympic races or sports games even then like our career is a lot longer than a 200 meter sprint it's a lot longer than a two-hour ball game like it's for a lot of us, the majority of our lives. So there are going to be peaks and troughs.

What you are comparing right now is just the beginning. With all that being said, I do think it's almost impossible to will yourself out of feeling envy because it is quite a spontaneous emotion, right? So it's not an emotion that we can call on and then get rid of at our will. It often comes when our guard is down.

Now, at times, career jealousy is actually an asset because it can spur on admiration and therefore inspiration alongside envy. Career jealousy is actually telling you something pretty important about what you want.

You only feel jealous because you feel invested in that situation. And the reason you feel invested or emotional about it is because it is something that you desire. And so in that way, our jealousy is a great way of providing us with direction.
