Admitting it is important, it won't go away until you can face it calmly and try to see the situation from as many sides as possible. If then you find there is cause for jealousy, deal with it then, but with luck you'll find it was just a misunderstanding and everything will be fine.
Relationships have to be built on trust, one partner being jealous isnt a good basis for trust

Many people believe they have to remain calm, cool, and collected and give the appearance that nothing can affect them. They believe that they should remain untouched by what others do. This is hard to accomplish sometimes. Consider the fact that if you are jealous, then something going on in your world is making you so. You have a right to be jealous, especially if someone elses actions are not giving you some consideration about how you may feel as a result of what they are doing.

You've already admitted to yourself. That's the first step in understanding and correcting it.
You have to do honest self analysis to figure out why you feel this way. When you know why you can begin to advise yourself on how to correct it.
In other words, if you are jealous of someones accomplishments and it means that you want to complete the same thing - then begin to take the basic steps to do so. This type of jealousy is ok, it actually helps us on our own way to success.
(Take care that you are not jealous of every single minute thing of the same person - that will be extreme insecurity and more difficult to fix - you will need a therapist for that).

I always ask myself, why? It bothers me to have to lie about anything so I ask myself: Why am I jealous? Because you want to make sure you are not coming from an unhealthy place, but also that your partner's actions/words have not unknowingly (or knowingly) fed an insecurity they realize you have.
So, then once I realize why, I work on overcoming that obstacle. But it's easier to get to the bottom of the problem, if you find out WHY there is the JEALOUS feelings in the first place.

"Jealousy. It may only be a simple word, but does not have such a simple definition behind it. There are many reasons we feel jealous and though it is a normal human emotion to feel, it tends to get out of control if we fail to tame it."

you get over it real quick, because jealousy is a big turn off and a number one reason for someone to leave you
and plus it makes you miserable, and them miserable.
if your really jealous, go have sex with someone else, then you will be guilty. ;p
