once your over like 21, having social media is kinda childish. live your own life and keep your real friends. the 400 friends you have on ******** arent real friends....lmao.
so many dudes log into ******** everyday just to see what friends of friends are doing and it has no benefit to you. live in the real world, not social media.
you can have some social media if it benefits you, like for jobs and chit, but majority of social media is crap.

No man has the right to be an amateur in the matter of physical training. It is a shame for a man to grow old without seeing the beauty and strength of which his body is capable.

The question with jealousy, much like anger, sadness, grief, fear, etc, is not how to avoid feeling it, but how to not dwell on it. It's a skill you have to work on just like anything else.
My best attempt at explaining it: it's absolutely useless to dwell on negative feelings since they result in inaction, divert your attention and energy towards feeling a certain way and more often than not result in a defeatist mentality.
Humans cannot compartmentalize thoughts or feelings. If you feel like a piece of chit loser cause you didn't make the team, every other part of your life will suck and you will feel like a loser forever. You can't keep beating yourself up for failing and expect to succeed elsewhere.
Remind yourself of the facts above, and move the fk on with your life. Only then can you succeed at other ventures. If you stay in this state of mind, you will be dragged deeper into that bullchit every day. Stop it and move on. Go get it brah, we're all gonno make it.

Stoicism
When you value the things about yourself that matter (your goals, your qualities, your virtues, your habits) jealousy doesn't make sense, since everything is up to you.
Yeah, if you value stupid external **** that you have no control over (booo! I'm not a famous instagram model!) then you're doomed to a life of bitter jealousy, a negative emotion that is serving you no purpose.

Most of it is stuff I normally do, I usually take a very internal mindset that avoids comparing myself etc but it's just falling apart of late

Most people who do well are able to show value to someone better than the ones who are not doing as well. It boils right down to that.

It's all about mindset bro. You shouldn't be jealous. Instead, you tried and failed. What did you learn? You have to try something next and keep trying until you find what makes you happy and that you can do.
I went from:
-Pro Hockey player (Tried out for Indy Fuel, feeds BlackHawks). During try outs, I realized I didn't want to do it. It was fun but I was not obsessed with it.
-Military Jet Fighter Pilot - Was in ROTC in HS, went for 1 month at the Air Force Academy prep school during the summer to get feels for it and noped out of it.
-Wanted to have my own auto shop to build custom fast as fuk cars. Didn't really have a vision of what to do or where to start so dropped it (was only 19).
-Went to college as Network Engineer, stable like computers, plenty of places to work.
-Changed to Security as it interested me more and luckily found out in high demand.
So sure, you say you've always wanted to the same thing. That's fine, but you need to come to the realization that it didn't work out. So what do you do now? Don't be a hateful spiteful bitch. Instead pursue something else. And keep pursuing until you find something that works for you.

not everything is an odds thing. There is obviously more **** you can do to increase the chances of you getting an internship, and you havn't been doing them.

All of the people I know thats failed, kept doing it until they succeeded.

You don't realize how much failures happen until success happens, and its obvious you attribute "success" to never failing, which is faulty logic in itself. I know more than enough people thats made it (these are the people i care about, could give a rats ass about all those fake ambitious ones) that I would listen and take their advice, over the people like you that are spouting "facts" that they think are true. You think that because a hypothetical 90% of all ppl fail, its because they did everything they were supposed to? LOL. They don't.

I have so many examples of people letting it slip away its ridiculous.I think this is also many seem to gloss over. You can't, like many baby boomers say, create your own opportunities.

But yes, I know waaay more people that have tried and failed through no fault of their own, than people who have succeeded. In my own family, my uncle is a successful businessman while my dad has never succeeded. They both have the same work ethic etc, came form the same circumstances but it just didn't fall into place for my dad like it has my uncle in some ways.

I came from poverty and section 8 in a gang infested ghetto, with no life connections, no help in school, no scholarships, and I am doing fine for myself. The entire time I had my ambitions, and I had my willingness to take action. I also failed a lot, and fell down alot. But when opportunity finally showed itself I took it. There are several key points in my life where I could have said "you know what, maybe later", where I said "lets do this" thats led me to where I am today.
Its very likely that even if your uncle went bankrupt, he'd end up successful again before your dad, because although windfalls do happen, they are very rare. Its much more likely that someone that ends in fortune and stays there, are doing something right. Think about all of the people that become suddenly rich through the lotto, then lose it all.

Its simple you didn't work hard enough at it and genetics weren't your friend.
One of my distant relatives plays pro football.
From age 8-14 until he got signed to pro team academy.
His drive, work ethic, maturity were miles ahead of everyone he competed with.
Take any sport and ask yourself are you the best one at it in your neighborhood, town, let alone state country etc... to comprehend how much work it requires to be good at something.

Same when I compare some others. I made it to the Ivy League, even though I did nothing to deserve it more than some others I know who just didn't get it lucky in certain ways. There's way more to success, you should read Malcolm Gladwell's Outliers I think it would blow your mind srs.

Someone will always have a better life, own better things, have a better looking girl, etc etc etc.
Just figure out what you want to do in life and do it. Make sh!t happen for yourself. Maybe you can't be a soccer pro but that doesn't mean you have to LDAR.

Jealous, no, but i do admire and aspire, i have friends who have no money, and friends who are millionaires, i learn something from them all and value each of their friendships equally.
It is better to die on your feet, than to live a lifetime on your knees
a coward dies a thousand deaths, a soldier dies but one.
The odds are great
But my spirit is strong,
My faith unbreakable,
My blood is pure.
I SHALL ENDURE!
I WILL ENDURE!
the strength of a gesture, a thought with no voice

But who was Jamie Vardy? The lad was playing none league football at 21 and won the premier league last year, bet if he had your attitude he'd be in a shop selling phones.

If you worked hard enough you would have made it. Only thing that could have prevented it is genetics.
You think Ronaldo woke up one day and became one of the best football players in world?
Go watch his movie, guy is true psychopath completely obsessed/absorbed with training/practice
read up kobe bryant's training.
he would arrive at practice 4am before anyone.
the list goes on and on.

1) meditation.
I force myself to clear my mind of childish wants and primal needs every morning. then i go about my day with calmness.
2) reminding myself of good fortune
my parents worked hard to immigrate from africa and thanks to them, i enjoy a decent standard of life.
3) testosterone / no fap.
high test and no fap allows you to keep those test gains, which naturally make you upbeat.
4) aggressive pursuit of goals
if you canit hit the ones you currently have then get new ones. OP i suggest you get into coaching soccer.

life is pre-determined. anyone who rejects this rejects physics. that being said emotions/thoughts/opinions are just that; they have no matter and thus hold no weight. if the thought "if i can't be an athlete life is chit" is useful to you go for it

Ronaldo's maximum potential is GOAT status. The average person's maximum potential is nowhere near that, not even close to pro level for that matter. that's just a basic reality

Also OP i've seen you post for quite some time now.
You're a really negative person. don't take that the wrong way but it's true. You're alone with your poisnous thoughts, in your brain, all day long. And that aint changing.
I'm not gonna tell you about bullsh*t affirmations or visualizations. But you're going to need to introduce new and fresh ideas into your head to stop being a miserable kunt.
the solution?
Read. Read a lot. Get a kindle, find recommended and popular books meant for the depressed, and give it a shot. Reading changes paradigms and makes your brain rewire itself.
