    There’s some real utility in gratitude. It’s also good protection against the dangers of victimhood and resentment. Your colleague outperforms you at work. His wife, however, is having an affair, while your marriage is stable and happy. Who has it better?pic.twitter.com/H0BKKSbYpr

        Generally it's good to have this sort of "count your blessings" thing as a way to gain perspective--but you do need sometimes to just bitch and feel sorry for yourself otherwise you're trying to make yourself not own up to what you in fact feel through a form of inhuman denial.

        IMHO, all that you really need to do is to focus on your own self development. That way, you don't have to feel insecure about what others achieve in their lives. Or even if you do feel some degree of envy, you don't harbor any feelings of resentment.

        Stoicism is just a way to keep the people from fighting back.

        And you misrepresent stoicism. Just like millions of people misrepresent @jordanbpeterson

        That's the point he's making. Compare yourself to yourself, not your friend that just achieved something. As the great Chronixx said, "Every man got his struggle.... Let me overcome my troubles"
