Give chicks enough rope to hang themselves and then don't look back.

Watching my girl flirt with other guys and then coming home with me so I could fuck the shit out of her was amazing.

I was able to completely cut out jealousy from my mind after having something of a mindset shift many many months ago. I literally couldn't feel jealous of anyone if I tried.

Basically the thing you need to realise is that every single person on this planet has had a different upbringing to you. That's it. I'll tell you how it works for me and hopefully you and mix and apply that for yourself.

I grew up in a christian household with parents who were ministers. Whilst other kids were out socialising and such, I stayed home playing video games all through high school. Of course I'm not blaming my parents but if I was to go out, they wouldn't let me stay out past 6pm. Obviously a lifestyle like this has effects on your social life.

Right now, I'm 18, run my own business, bought my own car and hit the gym. I'm enjoying life right now.

So here's my mindset.

If I see a guy my age or younger with far bigger muscles than me? He's been doing it before me and has the experience. What of if I see a guy who started the same time as me and yet is bigger? He's been dedicating far more time to it than I have.

If I see a guy who's killing with girls, getting lays from here to there? He's been doing this far long than I have. When I was home playing video games, he was talking to people in high school and getting reference experiences. Being jealous about him getting girls would be playing basket ball for the first time then being jealous that you aren't like Michael Jordan.

What of if there is someone my age who has a far more expensive car than I do? Chances are, his parents got him that car whereas I bought mine myself. If he bought the car himself, it means that he must have worked hard to get to the position where he can afford that car which leads me to have nothing but respect for him.

Honestly, it's so fucking easy. Jealousy is for girls. Once you realise this and have the mindset shift, you'll never get jealous again.

To give you a quick story, I once liked this girl in my gym who was always with a huuge guy. I checked the guy's instagram and found out that he was a mini celebrity, acting in tv shows and such. One day I just decided to start some chit chat and we became great friends. Heck he was humbler than me. I had him commenting on and liking all my pictures. We ended up hanging out and working out so much together that the both of us forgot about the girl and she was often left on her own.

Meditate

There really is someone cheating you. Yourself.

Other people aren't cheating you. You're cheating yourself out of abundance. Stop Blaming other people for your own inner poverty.

This isn't a contest to see who gets more and who gets less. Everybody gets opportunities every day, and you're simply choosing to ignore them.
