How to overcome the roots of Jealousy

I have identified 5 cases of Jealousy, they are:

1. Insecurity -- doubtful, uncertain, lacking confidence, self-doubt.

Case in point: A person feels inadequate and fears losing the affection or attention of someone they "perceive" as more compelling.

2. past experiences -- the memories (or trauma) that shape our lives.

Case in point: when a person has been previously betrayed or hurt this leads to suspicion and fear in future relationships.

3. Lack of trust -- doubt, skepticism, or having uncertain belief.

Case in point: When someone feels uncertain about another persons faithfulness--this causes feelings of jealousy and insecurity.

4. Inadequate communication -- insufficient or ineffective exchange of information.

Case in point: When a person misinterprets or assumes meanings because of incomplete or unclear communication, this may cause jealousy.

5. Unrealistic expectations--unreasonable standards or unattainable aspirations.

Case in point: Having unrealistic expectations for someone to fulfill. This leads to dissatisfaction and jealousy when those needs are not met.

What You Must Do

To overcome the roots of Jealousy can be a daunting task especially when it is deeply rooted in past trauma and experiences that manifest itself through low self-esteem.

To overcome, one must start aligning themselves with healthy and not abusive relationships; Demonstrating a sense of integrity by living authentically -- Keep it real!

Hang in there, when the going gets rough, "overcome and conquer" your challenges, adversity, setbacks and obstacles.

Become self-reliant and an independent thinker. Start to form your own beliefs and opinions.

Look to no one accept God then take good care of yourself emotionally, physically and spiritually.
