index of jealousy In the Artist's Way the author talks about the index of jealousy, to use your jealousy to see the way you truly wish to go in. So the fact that you are not envious of someone with a huge house and a size 0 figure, but rather of people with elevated midot living a life of kedusha is already a great thing. The accomplishments you are jealous of are really a beacon calling to you to become the best you. Also be aware that others are probably jealous your accomplishments, i.e. you are a beacon too.

So beautiful, so important. What a beautifully written article: honest, informative and inspiring. I absolutely relate to your emuna envy: I try to always keep it in the realm of the "brokenhearted", which, according to Rabbi Nachman, when applied to the desire for holiness is itself holy: and to stay away from sadness, which is such a fine line away but spiritual worlds apart. Thank you for waking me up a little!
