Yes. Learn to follow Jesus Christ. Find out what life He would have you lead. Allow God to mold and shape you into the person He would have you be. Look to Him, not to others. You envy others because you don't understand who you are and what gifts you have, that God has a good plan for you, a good future. Take your eyes off of these people and put them on the Lord...seek Him in all your ways and He will give you the desires of your heart.

Be happy with what you have because there are BILLIONS more in this world who have less than you and are suffering to survive. Look to those who have less than you and not to those who have more. Because there will be always someone who will have more than you, the envious hunger will never get quenched if you don't change your ways. Try to live a moderate life, don't worry about luxury. Most supposedly rich people who drive the big cars and live in big houses are drenched in debt from head to toe. They live very stressful lives. Better live in a small house with a used car and be content with what you have and enjoy time with your family.

Worry about yourself and what is going on in your life rather than focusing on other people, that way you will have what you want instead of being envious of others.

Stop desiring what they have, stop seeing them as better than you, stop wishing you were like them, and start seeing yourself as important as them, more important than them because it's you! Be careful buddy, don't be envious, because maybe other people are envious of you.

Don't compare what you have with what others have. You should focus on how God made you. It may be tempting when others shove their 'greatness' in your face, but just take a step back and realize they're just being arrogant. I know this sounds very cliche, but you are special in your own way. I hope this makes sense.
