Self Esteem

When we spend time watching others its too easy to become a little envious (jealous), to want what they have, to aspire to be what they are. Some say it's good to aspire to be like someone, achieve what someone else has achieved and then, when you get there you will be happy. But it's impossible. We want the lives of others, the achievements of others, the prestige of others, and in the wanting we will find the threads of discontentment, fear of possible failure, envy and jealousy. We cannot be someone else. We can only 'be ourself' and can only play our own assigned role.
Question: Who is it in your life that you envy or would most like to be like or attain what they have attained?
Reflection: What sort of feelings/emotions come up when you are watching them or thinking about them?
Action: What will you/can you do to free yourself from aspiring to be someone else?
