to me, jealousy is a motivation
really, i am so lazy that i need jealousy to excell
jealousy can make me do anything.....
but its bad you know, it keeps us in tension all the time and we suffer mind turbulence
still, why does it occur, i s'pose when we see someone greater than ourselves,then we cant bear it because we know we also could have done the same thing
note here---this is the verification of what i say:
: we do not get jealous of a person whom we know we cannot take over, we only get jealous when we know that we could have easily done much better and actually have many more applauds than this one there
oh no,jealousy is NOT inseurity....how can it be?...u r afraid of losing something, and u get jealous...nah, u dont get jealous when u HAVE something,u only get jealous when u DONT hve something n u KNOW u COULD have had it...i have already proved it

Because people have not received the right education since childhood. Very few people have really understood the meaning of sharing and accepting. Those who did, enjoys life from start to finish. Nothing belongs to you on earth, not even yourself, so you can never possess anything. If you understand and accept that you will never be jealous!

Hey, well some people might get jealous because they have been hurt to many times so it comes from fear of the person cheating on them and that you might become interested in someone else. Maybe they don't get enough attention and it could also come from insecurity.

people get jelous because they want the attention that the other person is recieving at the time or they want to be just like the other person. Alot of people are unhappy with there lives and when they see someone else living life the way they want to live it then that causes jelousy. Its happend to everyone at one point or another.

Jealousy is an emotional response to insecurity. As with any emotion it is tempered by your own personality and personal history. Jealousy can be unreasonable or very well founded.
If you are feeling jealousy it is a very good time to look at the situation as objectively as possible.

I think people get jealous because they don't feel they equal up to something or someone. Its their own insecurities.

Jealousy is of three types
1.When u saw sumthing owned by anyone else and want to have one like dis owned by U.
2.When u saw sumthing owned by anyone else and want to take away that thing from him n get it owned by U
3. When u saw sumthing owned by anyone else and want to take away that thing from him whether u get it or not.
(Hazrat Ali ibn-e-abitalib)
I think 1st one is motivation and a part of human nature 2nd is bit dangerous and 3rd one is a psycology problem(go to psycatrist in thisd case)

It is easier to take (from others) than it is to earn.
We like to consider ourselves better than others.
This prideful desire is challenged when others have things (esp. when we think that we have much less than them). Taking something from another person makes us the master and them the slave, thus re-inforcing the view that we are better than them.
