Do You Have Plenty of Jealousy? - Wellbeing Wisdom Tiny Bites Podcast
Do you sometimes have little stabs of jealousy when someone has something good happen to them? Congratulations – you’re human.
Because our brains have a negativity bias, if we just go where it goes, it goes to feelings of loss and lack and jealousy. In some neanderthal part of your brain, you’re feeling jealous because you think there’s not enough good for everyone, and when someone gets some, that’s less for you to get.
That might have been true with cave men and food – it’s most certainly not true anymore.
There’s plenty. Really. Trust that – there’s plenty.
Next time you feel the neanderthal in your brain getting green eyes, tell it to sit down and shut up because you have some celebrating to do. Make a big fuss of your friend or co-worker who had good fortune, secure in the knowledge that they’ll be celebrating you next.
Because there’s plenty. And it’s yours, too.
