Ever opened LinkedIn “just to check something” and
suddenly felt that sting of jealousy? You see
colleagues getting promotions, launching projects,
moving abroad, or speaking at conferences and
wonder, “Am I falling behind?”
You’re not alone.
This guide is here to help you handle those feelings.
Step 1: Notice the Feeling
First, admit it: career envy is real and normal. Ask yourself:
What triggered this feeling? Is it a post, a message, or
just scrolling?
Recognizing it early stops it from taking over your day.
Step 2: Remember the Backstory
Social media only shows the highlight reel. That promotion
or award? It’s built on years of effort, mistakes, and late
nights. Don’t compare your full journey to someone else’s
“photo finish.” Focus on your own wins, even the quiet ones:
• Skills you’ve improved
• People you’ve helped
• Challenges you’ve overcome
Step 3: Curate Your Feed
Your mental space matters. Protect it by:
• Muting or unfollowing accounts that trigger comparison
• Following content that motivates and educates
Step 4: Ask the Right Questions
Use envy as insight, not shame. Ask yourself:
• What am I really longing for?
• Do I want new responsibilities, better
leadership, or a fresh environment?
• What’s missing in my current growth?
Knowing the answer helps you plan your next step.
Step 5: Take Action
Feeling stuck, underappreciated, or invisible? That’s
your cue to explore better opportunities.
