Can a little bit of envy be healthy is pushing you forward?
Re: Envy- can it be healthy?
**Its how you perceive things and act on them. There is a distinction between envy and jealousy , well at least in my books !
Envy can be a more positive emotion if you look at it that way , where you envy someone having something and want to be able to achieve that too…so it acts as a stimulus for you to achieve goals…
As opposed to jealousy which is a negative emotion and you are jealous and begrudge a person having something , so rather than striving to work for achieving the goal , you use the emotion to consume you rather than channeling the energy more fruitfully.
**E.G .
“Oh you got such a great job ; lucky you ,Mashallah , I hope I can achieve that too” as opposed to " Bloody °beep° he makes so much more money than I do … 
"

Did that make any sense ?
