Learning to be happy for others has been a long path for me; I guess I have always had a competitive streak, and the thought of someone doing better just makes me jealous. But I don’t think I am alone; I think we all just don’t admit it to ourselves, let alone others.
Though I am now changing the lens in which I view other people’s success, learning to live the excitement for and thought them allows me to internally feel all the beautiful happy emotions even if the achievement is not my own. All the positivity flowing through me helps to lighten my outlook in life and after all we all have our own paths for life.
So, what is the takeaway?
Don’t be afraid to steal some of that positive energy, amplify it and shine it right back onto your people!
