Jealousy is a sign..or Learning to be distinctive in Business

the pressure to be like everyone else is not only in business its in life. So its really important to know what you aren't good at. No-one can do everything well so if you go to a blog and see a GREAT logo, it may be lacking in content. this is a key that this is their strength so they should focus on this area more.

As with your business, learning to listen to little whispers of your strengths helps you with the vision for your company. 

***be you, everyone else is taken******

So often i see many bloggers talk of jealousy of other bloggers without either realizing what they had to do or fail to do to get where they are. Not to mention the fact that you are jealous is generally a key. If you play the oboe generally you are jealous of the piano player. I mean you aren't jealous of someone who has nothing you desire.


The desire is key. Do you desire to be recognized, do you desire to use your gifts, do you desire to make an income. Remember God is an equal opportunity God so if you are desiring something chances are the opportunity has presented itself and perhaps you didnt follow through. 

In addition, there is always a COST involved. Perhaps that business person is unable to make income other ways due to a busy family, or special needs child. or Maybe instead of spending valuable time with family they are on the internet. Either way you only see part.

jealousy may tell you what you need to work on, or that deep down you know you are capable, or that you think you deserve something that maybe you don't OUCH! Either way work it to your advantage..


*****************************************************************
Find out the thing that is distinctive about you. Using pinterest you can find out where you style lies.  usually its one thing you can grow on to help you make  your mark.


Do you wear GLASSES
is your hair CURLY
Do you always use RIBBON in your products

Distinctive personality traits help you set yourself from the PACK.

Find out your strength and captialize on that

I have a BIG MOUTH and have been told i was too LOUD forever, but that might be a good trait if you are yelling FIRE, or need to ALERT someone of something. So avoid the comparison trap and stick to your lane in your race.

Speaking of race, please have a moment of prayer for those effected by the tragedy in BOSTON.

  1. I completely agree with your views on jealousy. You are the first peson I have met who also, like me, doesnt see jealousy as purely a bad thing. It can motivate us too, and show us what we need to acheive.
