'Wish for others what you wish for yourself' is my favourite quote and something I live by. Its so true because true happiness can only be achieved when we stop being jealous about others' success. When we are too preoccupied bout what others have, and what we don't have, we fail to see the things that we have right in front of us. Thus failing to be happy.
When we see our friends,peers, or family members attaining something that makes them proud and happy, most of us would definitely go into defend mode and start criticising them or degrading their achievements because we are jealous. Tell me, after doing all that,are we happy?
The answer in NO. Why? Because we are filled with all that hatred and jealousy, how do we expect to find happiness while harbouring all those feelings.
That is why,we should always be happy with others' achievements because then and only then can we be happy.
Its not an easy thing to do but believe me its easier than living with jealousy. Try it! I did and honestly I'm a happier person because whenever my friends or family are happy, I am happy..
Easier said than done, actually no because once you want to be happy, I know you will work on it
