Why is it that even if you're the best of friends, close-knit siblings or tight friends. You have at one point, felt the twinge of “inggit” whenever something good happens to him/her. Instead of being happy, we find ourselves threatened, resentful, insecure, and extremely stressed and pressured at others good fortune. We fund ourselves disconted with what we have.
Envy is inherent in our nature. The thing is what envy causes, isn't just mean remarks but actions that can be destructive to others and most especially to you.
Envy asks on leading question: “What about me?” I sure do know you don't want to be the pathetic and “inggitera” all your life, so get over it. Here are some helpful ways:
1.STOP IT and I mean ASAP! AS you become aware of your envy, better stop and DO NOT, on impluse, make actions or adopt attitudes that will work against yourself.
2.Focus on your own qualities. Make the most of what you have and enjoy it! Learn to like what you have and believe in your self.
3.Spend time with the person you envy. Yes, you read me right! Hang out with you “kinaiinggitan”. This way, you get to see the whole scenario and may find out that there is less to envy than what you originally perceived.
4.Be yourself. The best way to stick out from the crowd is not to copy everyone or someone as they do. Be cool because you're unique than to emulate someone you think is coll and look so “pa-cool” which is ridiculous.
5.Be happy. A smile makes one stand out from a bunch of poker-faced people. Think about it.
Envy is not wholly negative. It can drive us forward in positive ways. Don't waste precious time and energy wallowing in “inggit”. Okay? Get up, stand out, be grounded, be heard and be happy!
