If everbody is good in one thing, then who will do the other work. We need to find our own strength and work on it. In the meantime, understand how he/she excels in her studies and become humble to learn their techniques. Being humble will get you even further, Insya Allah.

envy being a natural human emotion, and therefore impossible to get rid of. your emotions (except hatred i think) could be channeled in positive or negative ways.
think the question has been answered...
quoting from you, "being competitve is good, but having ill feelings is not"

24/07/2007 11:44:09 PMwell practically speaking, why would you envy others?
why would you want to be like other people?
be comfortable in your own skin and never apologise for who you are.
@ the end of the day, people generally aren't worth envying. they have pretty much the same issues/problems/obstacles as you.
people tend to just vary in how well they hide it.
there! that's my anthony robbins moment.
or should i say oprah moment haha.
hope that motivated you enough.

if think about it. envy is all around us.
eg. advertisments, celelbrities, glamour...
quoting from John Berger's Ways of Seeing.
"Glamour cannot exist without personal social envy being a common and widespread emotion"

How do you get rid of feeling envy towards your friends that do better than you in studies? Because eventhough being competitve is good, but having ill feelings is not.
