A growing difference in incomes divides people into rich and poor. In such a situation, the offense of the less affluent and, as a consequence, envy is inevitable. But this destructive feeling for the psyche must be learned to overcome.
Instruction manual

Before you start to struggle with envy, understand that in fact, each person has his own difficulties. And if envy torments you, it means that you constantly think that others are always better, and you are always worse. This is an illusion! Try to see the problems of those people whom you envy. For example, a lot of money, cars at the price of apartments, country houses, and the son is a drug addict who sits on the neck of his parents, and it never even occurs to him that he will have to earn money in the future. They gave him everything. And these parents, having huge fortunes, cry in their souls and try to do everything to return the child to normal life.

The desire to be better and more wealthy is the basis of envy. But also know that most famous and rich people spent their childhood and youth in poverty and suffered from ridicule from their peers. This became a powerful motivation for these people to achieve much in this life. And an envious person makes excuses: they say that everything is different, I have nothing. And he does nothing so that he has it all. Understand this and begin to take those steps that will lead you to your goals.

Envy is also a heavy burden for man. Remember how much energy and time you devoted to discussing or pondering other people's successes. And at this time they save, earn, wisely spend their capital. Your circle of communication, most likely, consists of the same envious people, because to be such a person and communicate with successful people is like mocking yourself. Only negativity can be drawn from such communication. Stop scattering on trifles, spraying your strength and energy on meaningless experiences.

Recognize for yourself the truth that when you are jealous, you are simply blocking your success. This is because all your energy goes to other people. Your affairs stand still. Do not make your happiness dependent on the presence of something. Determine what exactly you personally need for happiness. If it's money, change jobs. Look for decent wages. For this, you may have to sacrifice your time, peace (if the working day is longer, the work is more responsible). Understand that status, monetary stability and status in society depend only on you, on your efforts. Do not look for a thousand reasons why you do not have one or the other, just take action. Otherwise, envy will remain your eternal companion.
