The article discusses the author's feelings of career inadequacy driven by LinkedIn’s portrayal of others' successes amid economic downturns. The anxiety induced by seeing envy-inducing posts about new clients, job invites, and immense career successes is overwhelming. Despite loving the platform, the author acknowledges that these feelings are harmful. Citing Warren Buffet, the article emphasizes the futility of envy and suggests a paradigm shift: transforming jealousy into a business opportunity to foster personal growth.
Warren Buffet quipped: 'As an investor, you get something out of all the deadly sins—except for envy. Being envious of someone else is pretty stupid.'
I am coldly and blisteringly envious. But what if you could prevent this awful feeling, and turn it into a business opportunity?
