Envy Is the Greatest Motivator

Envy has a terrible reputation. But the feeling itself can tell you what you value, where comparison has hooked you, and what you may need to work towards.

In this episode, I separate malicious envy from the more useful kind, drawing on Alain de Botton, the story of Mozart and Salieri, and my own experiences learning guitar and Brazilian jiu-jitsu. I also share a simple envy diary practice you can try for one week.

The point is not to pretend envy is noble. It is to stop hiding it, read the signal honestly, and turn it into work that matters.
