Overcome Jealousy by Improving Self-Esteem | Yes On Prop8

Jealousy is one of the most deceptive emotions we as human beings. It can ruin relationships, lead to mental distress, produce bodily symptoms, and absolutely take over your life if you} let it. Overcoming jealousy will lead to less stress, improved complete well-being, and much more satisfying relationships.

There may be quite a few factors for jealousy. If you?ve been lied to,? cheated on, or taken advantage of, you?re much more likely to experience jealousy even when it?s unrelated to those who mistreated you.

When these things occur, it oftne tends to knock our self-esteem down a notch or two. And low self-esteem leaves us wide open for jealousy. Because of this, a key to being capable to overcome jealousy is for us to boost our self-esteem.? Low self-esteem is at minimum a contributing factor, if not an all-out cause, in nearly all conditions where jealousy is involved.

This is not to say that if you?ve been cheated on or lied to that the jealousy isn?t justified.? But self-esteem still affects the jealousy and how you deal with it. The less strong our self-esteem, the more likely we are to react with jealousy in any circumstances where we may feel we are inferior in any way.? And by its very definition, low self-esteem means that we feel inferior.

So we should understand that if we were cheated upon, that it is not our fault and we should not let that to reduce our view of ourselves. It?s not your fault if your boyfriend?s a jerk. Or if the girl you?re dating is the type to run around, that?s on her, not on you, and your self-esteem should not suffer for it.

Do things that make you feel very good about yourself.? Think about all the terrific qualities you have.? Do something every day that?s just good for YOU,? something that makes you appreciate yourself and then start bettering your self esteem. This will help you tremendously in your fight to overcome jealousy.
