Do you despise people whom you know is a lot better than you?

Hi charles192, No, I do not despise people whom I know is a lot better than me. There will always be people who are better or worse than I. That's a fact of life that one will have to live with. In fact, I like to be with people who are better than I as I get to learn from them and hence improve myself. I think one shouldn't feel envious or jealous of another person's success. What one should do is to try and improve one's knowledge and skill which will lead to a more fulfilling life.

I feel a bit of a jealousy... as if I was that good... but I don't hate on them, that would be childish.

I might feel a bit jealous or a bit envious about them.. But I know how to control my emotions and just shrugged off my shoulders and think that I can do better in some other things. It is but normal to feel that way but I don't think despising someone would help us get ahead of them.

Yes, sometimes, but I always think that each people has his/her own specialty but sometimes we are only lazy that's why we can't show it to others or even to ourselves.

Hi charles192, I won't pretend that I don't envy them because I do. In fact I'm feeling it right now towards my sis but I'm also thankful that she's succeding with some aspects of her life now. I know that she deserves it and I know it's so silly of me to be invious, it's just this impatience that I'm going through right now, I hate feeling this way because it sucks. I even avoid going to facebook right now because I want to be isolated and let this feeling pass. I don't like to see my friends' posts bragging about there perfect life. It annoys me especially because I know some of them are just pretending to get people's attention.

It is human nature to want to have everything even being the best one can be. However, the problem stems when you try to bring someone down because of this. The best thing to do is to just be challenged and aspire to be better without being envious.
