You see what others have: money, clothes, games, friends.

Sometimes you want that too – and that’s okay.

This chapter will help you to distinguish between what you need and what you simply notice.

🛠️  Three Steps

1. Make a small clarification – for yourself

• What do I see others having?
  
  
• Which of these things do I want for myself?
  
  
• Which of these things do I truly need?
  
  

→ You may see what others have, yet still remain true to yourself.

2. Make a small decision – with care

• I may want something – but I don’t need to have it all.
  
  
• I may rejoice for others, but still remain true to myself.
  
  
• I may miss something, but I won't feel insignificant.
  
  

→ You may see – and still stay true to yourself.

3. Make a small gesture – for yourself

• Write down what you truly need – today.
  
  
• Take a small step – for yourself, not for others.
  
  
• Tell yourself: "I am enough – even without that."

→ You are perfectly fine just as you are.

🕊️  Closing impulse

You may see – without losing yourself.

You may want something – without bending yourself.

You may rejoice for others and yet remain true to yourself.

You are perfectly fine just as you are.
