Syndrome of jealousy, greed and love



Doesn’t the title infer a sequence of events? For many it started with your best friend getting a girlfriend and you getting a lesser priority in his life. There comes jealousy. Some might argue here that jealousy might come from you not getting that girl. Introspect and you will find the former cause. This leads to greed of having a girlfriend. And the lonely rider tries his luck with many until he finds love.

The above analysis was pretty simple. But this is not limited to cuddling moments. Think about your family relationship, your work place moments. All adhere to this principal. And there is a learning one should take from it. Let’s see the below diagram.



 


Imagine your work place, newly joined a team with few others. You get trained with them. Some excel in certain aspects and get recognized. You feel jealous. When it comes to work allocation you take up job out of greed but later realize you are making mistakes. Your boss shouts. You start hating your job. Let’s take another example. Your elder sister gets all the praise as she is good in following mom’s order. Ultimately you hate your sister for the greed of mom’s love after being jealous of her. 

Can we do anything to fix this. Yes. Jealousy, greed, love are all human behavior which is obvious. The fun is to make something productive of it. Let’s introspect. Why are we jealous. Something which we lack to produce. So in this case rather than spoiling our mood we can cheer for the one who does it. Appreciation has nothing to lose. Greed comes when we join the race without wearing our gears on. It doesn’t make sense to play rough. Here we should learn for the benefit of own by devoting enough time to suffice the hunger. One starts loving when things appear smooth to him. But this is not the end. One should relish the happiness out of it. If you just love and forget it after sometime you might fall into an infinite loop of Jealousy-Greed-Love.

As I always say learn to divert the energy in a manner that would best suit the most ideal action. These things are vital for our growth and as we found how to best optimize them, the door to success is not far away.
