Make jealousy your motivation
♡ I’m not sure where I saw this but I did see someone say to make their jealousy and anger their motivation. Now I was like “Why would you wanna do that”, but when I saw how, it was definitely motivation.
We all tend to be jealous of people because of something they may have. Then we get mad because we want the same things they want, and it continuously stays in your head for a while and so on.
────────────────────────
For example (imagine this)
Your in class and this girl walks in, she has the perfect body, your dream body. She walks so effortlessly and has everyone turning heads. You don’t even realise your staring at her, she has it all! The flat stomach the slim arms. “You have really nice arms!” Someone compliments her. Suddenly you come back to reality, you don’t have what she has. Your suddenly mad and jealous of her body, because you want that to.
Now this is the trick
♡ You go home and decide that you wanna have all that to, your kind of mad and ready to take on anything it takes. (Don’t over do this though). You do you own research on it, find new workouts. Your all set and it drives your dream, you don’t stop until you have what you want and whatever else that you may not have.
────────────────────────
Here is another example for you to get the idea.
You are in class (wich ever class you prefer) and the teacher is handing out everyone’s tests. All your friends are giving each other high-fives to one another. You look at yours and oh, 40%?
The teacher is calling out the top three grades and their names and yours isn’t called.
♡ Reminder you do have another test coming up in a few weeks. You study as hard as you can, take breaks, memorised everything. And you feel confident for the first time!
And best of all you got the highest grade in class!
────────────────────────
♡ See. You get jealous and angry and it drives it to your success. Someone who’s jealous will get what they want than someone who doesn’t care as much.
♡ I personally actually find this so useful because it’s not gonna be fun standing there mad, like might as well get what I want to. I believe anyone can do this, but remember it’s gonna take time.

I didn't get Great wearing pink (sad face) in the Intern in My Heart finale, but I did get them MATCHING! And just not in this way.
They have a dark and light dynamic since Great is a Black Brooder and Top is a Pink Person, so here they are in the black and pink (it's hard to see it on Top in this picture, but his top has splashes of light pink on it), yet they have matching blues. Great's blue is darker, and Top's is lighter.
Then Great wears a red jacket and black bottoms, while Top wears a pink top and white bottoms. Pink is a tint of red, meaning it's red mixed with white.
Which leads to their final "matching" outfits: Great is in red and dark blue, and Top is in pink and light blue. They are connected while still retaining their color coding.
They end the episode still in their colors, but now taking on a trait from each other. Top's pink is darker and blends into white at the bottom, while Great's black is lighter (almost grey).
To think they started here with a little light black box over Top's heart.
This was beautiful! I loved it.

Jack Smith, the U.S. special counsel named to investigate Republican former President Donald Trump, has a reputation for winning tough cases against war criminals, mobsters and crooked police officers.
Behind the scenes, however, Smith's former colleagues say he is just as tenacious in his pursuit to get criminal charges dropped for the innocent as he is to win convictions against the guilty.
When Smith isn't busy competing as a triathlete in Ironman races, they said, he is working as a dogged investigator who is open-minded and not afraid to pursue the truth.
"If the case is prosecutable, he will do it," said Mark Lesko, an attorney at Greenberg Traurig LLP who worked with Smith when both were prosecutors at the U.S. Attorney's Office in New York City's Brooklyn. "He is fearless."
Smith recently returned to the United States after working from The Hague in the Netherlands since November while recovering from knee surgery following a biking accident, a person familiar with the matter, speaking on condition of anonymity, said on Wednesday.
Attorney General Merrick Garland appointed Smith in November to take over two investigations involving Trump, who is running for President in 2024.
The first probe involves Trump's handling of highly sensitive classified documents he retained at his Florida resort after leaving the White House in January 2021.
The second investigation is looking at efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election's results, including a plot to submit phony slates of electors to block Congress from certifying Democrat Joe Biden's victory.
Grand juries in Washington have been hearing testimony in recent months for both investigations from many former top Trump administration officials.
SEARCH FOR INNOCENCE AND GUILT
Smith, a Harvard Law School grad who is not registered with any political party, started as a prosecutor in 1994 at the Manhattan District Attorney's Office under Robert Morgenthau, who was best known for prosecuting mob bosses.
Smith's friends credit Morgenthau with instilling in him the skills that made him the prosecutor he is today.
"There was just a real emphasis, from Morgenthau on down, on not just going after convictions," recalled Todd Harrison, an attorney at McDermott Will & Emery who worked with Smith in the Manhattan District Attorney's Office and later in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Brooklyn.
"We were praised if we investigated something and demonstrated that the target of the investigation was innocent."
Once, he and Smith "spent the whole night making phone calls" after learning that a jailed suspect in one of their cases was innocent. The suspect was released the next day.
In 1999, Smith started working at the U.S. Attorney's Office in Brooklyn.
He won a conviction against New York City Police Officer Justin Volpe, a white policeman who was sentenced to 30 years in prison for assaulting Abner Louima, a jailed Black inmate, with a broomstick.
Smith also won a capital murder conviction against Ronell Wilson, a drug gang leader who murdered two undercover New York City police officers, though a federal appeals court vacated the death penalty verdict.
In 2008, Smith left to supervise war crime prosecutions at the International Criminal Court in The Hague. He returned to the Justice Department in 2010 to head its Public Integrity Section until 2015.
Most recently, he worked as chief prosecutor for the special court in The Hague investigating war crimes in Kosovo, and won a conviction last month against Salih Mustafa, a former Kosovo Liberation Army commander.
Moe Fodeman, an attorney at Wilson Sonsini Goodrich & Rosati who worked as a prosecutor with Smith, said his former colleague is known for being methodical and thinking outside the box.
"He is famous for to-do lists," said Fodeman, adding that the lists would be filled "with ideas that, of course, you should do, but no one thinks of."
Smith is also known for being expeditious, and Fodeman predicted the special counsel's investigations involving Trump will probably move swiftly.
"He's not going to be dillydallying," Fodeman said. "He's going to get the job done."
