Are you genuinely happy when others get what you want?

Say you've been eyeing a new Range Rover for a while and your next door neighbor drives up in the exact new car you've wanted! You're overtaken with jealousy and start thinking...
"How did they afford that?"
"That is supposed to be my car!"
"Why do they get the car right now and I don't?"

When you get angry and jealous of others receiving what you want, is that sending out loving thoughts? Is that really loving what you want?

If you can't send out loving thoughts for others getting what you want as well, then you aren't going to get it. You have to love what you want in all aspects.

Your brain gets confused when you tell it that you want a Range Rover but then you're jealous and angry at your neighbor for getting one because they "don't deserve it" or "can't afford it." Your brain starts thinking - "Okay, you want this car, but you don't deserve and can't afford it."

Your first thought may not be a loving thought. And that's okay. Be aware when you have these jealous or negative thoughts about other. Catch yourself and change your thinking. Change it to a loving thought if that is something you want for yourself.

Check in with something you want. Are you sending out loving thoughts about it? Are you happy when others receive it? If not, start becoming aware of the thoughts you send out about what you want.
