Healthy competition vs Envy
(Jealousy can breed healthy competition or Envy)

Jealousy is an emotion, not a negative or a positive one, as all emotions become triggered by thoughts one identifies with to form by energy stored within until expressed, and depending on the release of the emotion and utilization of it will determine if it is negative or positive. Having excessively identified thoughts forms excessive emotions, which form by the supply of energy within that may leave one depleted, as emotions are accumulations of energetic balls constructed by thoughts, either released authentically or disingenuously or suppressed and stored within taking up space and preventing the new supply of energy finding room. Released negatively means disingenuously, which causes other emotions of guilt, anger, and shame to take up space. However, if released positively, meaning authentically clears space and tidies room with the understanding needed to free the emotion sincerely, creating room for forgiveness and gratitude, which exudes tranquillity and establishes the foundation to release future emotions positively and authentically. Authenticity is the honest expression beneath false emotions like anger, and those emotions develop from an underlying emotion, such as sadness, which grows into anger if not recognized and released before transforming into anger. When one does not vulnerably express their sadness, they mask it with anger, although the alternative is assertiveness or a tearful expression, depending on the situational interaction and relation. Confidence and respected morals that breed better choices enable one to assert their boundaries to avoid collecting unnecessary hurt that creates sadness.     
  The jealous emotion, if not properly recognized, can control behavior that breeds envy within and harms others with a mere envious stare referred to as the evil eye. Understanding jealousy can be utilized authentically is crucial to sustaining a healthy mindset, body, and soul while building on connections that fulfill social existence. To avoid envious attributes and manage jealousy in a consciously controlled mode, recognizing the emotion is essential and catching it before it develops into envy. To self-reflect and identify the reason for the jealousy and release the emotion through action that is motivated to remit the jealousy. For example, self-reflecting on jealousy enlightened the realization it is due to dissatisfaction with their body that becomes noticed through another body desired. Motivated action can be to begin to release the energy of jealousy in exercise or consciously eating to diminish insecurity while utilizing jealousy as inspiration.
  To use jealousy for healthy competition is to be aware of the emotion when it displays itself and transform it into motivation. Healthy competition is a friendly game of sport where there is no scoreboard or winning and losing, only improving skills and abilities to be better, encouraged by the other performances. In this way, competition is not aggressive or fast-paced but the observation of skills and abilities to practice and advance while enjoying the game.
  When jealousy is not recognized nor utilized for healthy competition, it assures one to stay stagnant even if it seems to be otherwise externally with material possessions and account rising. Stagnation is not determined by the external movement of one’s life, whether getting a promotion, buying a house, or elevating materially. Stagnation is to be stuck soulfully, meaning a barrier to ascending spiritually, where peace of mind becomes authentically discovered and clouds of destruction purged consistently and accurately. Purging the inhibitions of clouds that are opinionated beliefs, hurt, insecurities, and identification with the self transforms external stagnation. However, fake external progress can fool one into avoiding recognizing internal stagnation.         

 

Jealousy is an emotion if not recognized, controlled, and managed, can develop into envy, thus dictating behavior to either noticeably or passively bully the target, which causes one to feel the behavior of jealousy by merely achieving or attaining something that they desire, whether it is an admired body, material possessions, a partner, attributes, and skills, etc.
  If jealousy is not recognized, behavior is not managed, monitored, or understood, causing ignorance and subjugating people to toxic interferences spiritually, physically, and mentally. Spiritual intrusions are the experiences of the evil eye when one consistently thinks of another negatively through jealousy and how they are luckier, bringing about bad luck in the other life who is unaware of the protection of the Divine Source referred to as God. They may bring temporary poor luck to the life of another, whether it is simply making the other feel anxious or uncomfortable, which may cause them to act out of character and potentially cause them to neglect or suffer in a part of their life described as a spiritual attack that needs shielding. Shielding spiritual attacks is made possible with faith and awareness of the Divine Source, allowing one to remove negativity accumulated throughout one’s day by reflecting and seeking guidance that inevitably reminds one of modesty, which is an act that guards against jealousy. Modesty is not sharing too much overall and done with authentic confidence. Unlike fake confidence, genuine assuredness is knowing one’s abilities, attributes, and character that does not need showing off or too pleasing where boundaries are not made evident.
  Physical disturbances allow others into a sacred space where sexual contact becomes explored without accurate calculation of who the person one is sharing such intimacy with. Sexual intimacy is a transference of love between two people, including emotions and the state of each other. If jealousy is emanating from the other, the sexual contact will develop into possession or harassment, causing the other, if they become aware of it, to fight for their freedom and request to be left alone. Sharing intimacy with jealousy as a prominent emotion from one or the other causes disturbances in the ability to accurately identify which emotions belong to whom, thus causing confusion and out-of-character behavior.            
  Mental instability can begin to turbulent the mind when dealing with jealous emotions one has not yet determined how to navigate around. Jealousy directed at one by others is the attempt to cause instability in the target to relieve the other from the jealousy dictating their behavior. It is pleasing to witness one that the other was jealous of to display instability, insecurity, or any display that proves they are not worthy for one to be jealous of, instead of using the energy utilized to deem the other not worthy to lift themselves and create their worth that inevitably remits jealousy without the destruction of another.     

 

Jealousy is an emotion with a purpose, just like all emotions, beings, and things in the world, just like all, either utilized Divinely or Devilish depending on who governs one’s life, the Divine Source or the Devil. To be aware of jealous emotions and recognize where and who they stem from is to reflect on why. Why is it displaying itself, and is it someone else’s emotions latching onto one through repression and passivity, or is it related to a lack in one’s life that needs attention to become appropriately filled?
  If jealousy is latching, disguising the truth of who it belongs to is an indication of the neglection of boundaries that allows another to passively express repressed jealousy through their target, who is calculatedly chosen and identified by the perpetrator as weak through their lack of assertive boundaries that communicates one is a doormat or afraid to assert lines that cannot become crossed due to their moral integrity.  
  If jealousy derives from within, there is a lack and dissatisfaction of one’s existence that needs attention to be reflected upon to fill it. The emotional energy of jealousy can charge motivation, which is the Divine expression of jealousy that is healthy competition. To witness a desirable trait or characteristic in another and choose to admire it, adopt it, and gain inspiration from others to better one’s circumstances. To seek the truth and delve deep within why one is not satisfied with life and how to fulfill one’s existence to lift to a higher version of oneself that builds value and asserts confidence through a healthy competing mindset that inevitably assures gratitude for all inspiration, which include those who one can either be jealous of or inspired by. Depending on one’s supervisor or governor will determine the route in which jealousy becomes utilized, as the Devil is lazy and envious, whereas the Divine Source is charged and creates.  

 

When envy is not recognized and utilized appropriately, it subjugates the offender and the victims, leaving all ashamed and devalued. Destructing all lives, including the offender, as jealousy not used fairly manifests into envious behavior that is the reason the Devil exists. Bitter behavior is the hideous attribute that isolates one from connection and ensures excruciating loneliness despite having people surround them, which causes people depletion when around the envious persona. It is when one cannot celebrate others and suffers from achievements that are not theirs, crippling them to transform into a fraudulent being. Who puts on a show to be seen by others as a successful person to be respected and valued despite their lack of integrity and falsehood. Due to the debilitation of energy envy feeds off, they do not know how to become the person they show they are.
  Envious emotions take up the most space energetically, as negative thoughts, emotions, and calculations of how to present a false persona to the public accompany envy. All the energy within becomes consumed by declaring a deceiving character and life to surrounding people and attempting to reach a broader mass to assert the relevance of a fraudulent persona to relieve deep insecurity and inability to progress in life sufficiently and peacefully. Feeding people's achievements by needing acknowledgment of any small way they may have influenced accomplishments that rightfully belong to others who put in the effort to generate pride causes the embarrassment of the shame that one is unable to establish success in any aspect of one's life due to the inability to stand back and observe and celebrate others, to become inspired and appreciate others for their influence instead of taking credit for their impact on others, which inevitably gets celebrated when humility is evident. 
  Healthy competition is the ability and humility to celebrate others and even promote others' success when recognized while collecting motivation to utilize after inspiration is gifted. Inspiration becomes gifted to noble players who understand the game of life, which is the internal economics of good deeds and blessings. Righteous behavior assures justice from the defiant and may cause temporary pain but permanent success. Righteous behavior is the authentic display despite the judgments that may be received, as to be authentic contradicts perfection. It is not flawlessness, authenticity is an honest display that brings forth the truth of one’s existence, the bad and good that accompany all life choices and creations, displaying the reality of being human.              
    


Overall, jealousy that is not recognized and utilized appropriately for all involved burdens the soul and surrounding souls with envy. Envy is the repulsive trait that characterizes one to be ugly no matter the immense effort put in to be beautiful. Envious behavior asserts a false narrative of their life and character, fooling people into perceiving them as noble and wealthy spiritually or materialistically. It is the exhausting facade played by the offender to attain recognition of how they desire to become seen, although a delusional existence of the reality of who they are and what they have made of themselves and their lives. That wastes time, energy, and life, lacking the inspiration and blessings that direct one to a fulfilling and wealthy spiritual existence, which provides material sufficiency to match the spiritual wealth attained.
  Jealousy is an emotion that exists that is not denied, only recognized and understood to be able to identify its purpose in making use of it appropriately. The aim is motivation, encouragement, and inspiration, which is the authentic expression of jealousy, to be accurate in understanding the lack one is feeling and seek advice on how to fill the gap after reflecting on the truth of why one is feeling deficiency to receive the inspiration from the Divine Source which delivers healing that is understanding. To play the game of life fairly and righteously, which creates healthy competition and enjoyment of the game, instead of an aggressive display of win or lose mentally that is an illusion, as there is no winning or losing. There is no scoreboard, only the attempt to better one’s life and existence to be of more value.
  Accomplishing transforming jealousy into a healthy competition instead of the development of envy acquires inspiration, motivation, and encouragement instead of a lazy, depleting movement of existence that lacks motivation and inspiration, which leaves one confused and unsure of how to attain a life of fulfillment and satisfaction.
