The root of jealousy
Is not a bigger car or a bigger house
People do not generally have the exact same dreams
Of desiring the exact same possessions or achievements
The root of jealousy is belief systems
…I want to have a life that makes me more resilient
That makes me feel more powerful
That makes me feel accomplished
That makes me feel like I did something right…
It is not about material things
It is about being confident in your own guts
To believe the right things
To direct your energy to just the right foundations
To be resilient when others don’t see what you know
To know you are right when others deem you wrong
To believe.
The right.
Things.
People don’t just want the possessions
They want the guts that made those possessions happen
So many people play guitar
But so few are rock stars
So few people love their craft
They love where it got others
Beliefs are often the difference
Following what you love and what fits only you
Beliefs are often the difference
Between doing something as a wishful thought
And doing something because it is your personal freedom
What’s yours is only yours
You cannot have what others have
Others cannot have what you have
When you value your authentic self
When you let go of limiting beliefs
When you forget Supposed To Be’s
And embrace your beautiful What Is
You are the one with the power
You are the one with the dreams come true
The root of jealousy
Is jealousy over belief systems
Belief systems cannot be purchased
But the right ones prosper your inner being
In quite the invaluable way
It is always your turn
You just have to take it authentically
With grace and kindness and self worth
Recognizing all are valuable
Including you.
You’ve got this!
