Do I feel envy? by Dr. Roch

Today I want you to reflect and see envy as truly an enemy that you cannot allow in your life, and if you identify it in someone close to you, you must not let it poison you.

Don't judge someone who envies you; it's simply a sign of a weakness in the human spirit. Your focus should be on preventing envy from affecting you—not your personality, your presence, what you have, what you say, or what you feel.
No one has control over envy. You can't control other people's envy of you, but you can take charge of your own reaction to it.
You are also responsible for dealing with the envy you feel towards others, so today I want to give you key points about envy.
If you want to delve deeper into this topic, I invite you to the retreat, "Naked Relationships," check the website for dates.

I am envious because I want to be as beautiful as you; I want to be like you and I can't, and I don't want to pay the price you pay. You are envious when you say in your mind or with your mouth: I want to have the fine clothes, the elegant house, and the high position you have.

Being dissatisfied with who I am, I wish to be like you. But if I understood my dissatisfaction and its cause, then I would no longer want to be like you, nor would I yearn for the things you possess.

In other words, if I begin to understand who I truly am, I will never again compare myself to anyone or feel envy towards anyone.

Envy arises because I want to change myself and become someone else.

But if I say, “Whatever I am, that’s what I want to understand,” then envy disappears. Envy disappears from your heart and your mind when you recognize that you have what you have paid for with your effort, your habits, your life, your education, and your attention to yourself.
You deserve everything you have, you deserve to be who you are, because of what you have done and decided in your life, therefore, accepting this harsh reality makes envy disappear from your life.

At that moment, no discipline is necessary; and from that understanding of what I am, integration arises.
You have to integrate your raw reality into your thinking, your emotions, and your feelings in every moment of your life. .
