When people around you are improving and being rewarded for their hard work and dedication it can make you feel like you're not doing enough. The real thoughts that should be going through your head is "I will be next". When people are apart of our lives they are there for a purpose. It could be guidance, love, fun, inspiration, or any other purpose. We can judge others, doubt ourselves, and criticize ourselves all in thinking we aren't doing something right because others are being rewarded prior to us.

Stop thinking that. The doubt is what will stop you from your next break though. Everything gets harder before it gets better. Stay true to what you want to do and eventually it will happen. There is no set date stamp, however; it is coming. You will meet the right person, be put in the right position or place and the right time and everything will end up just as it should be. Don't desire what someone else has because your gift might be intended to be bigger. It isn't a competition. You have something to offer that will be revealed and rewarded at the right time.
For example: you have three friends who are professional women. One could be a writer, one a doctor and the other a dress maker. All own their own businesses, but the book writer gets a huge book deal while the other two are still trying to make their way. Be glad and grateful without jealousy or envy. The person close to you is being rewarded. You are coming alone soon. When you hate or disvalue how hard that person has worked you can block your own success and blessing. It could be a month or a year later, but the dress maker could get a deal to be in a big name brand store or open her own boutique. Then a month later the doctor could be named doctor of the year and their patient list doubles.

No matter what the situation when you are around valid, real friends and they start to prosper, stay positive and know that they are working just as hard as you are. They deserve it too. You could be next. When you keep an open mind and stay true to what you believe in everything will start to change.
Another example: Everyone around you is graduating to another place in their lives, marriage, kids, jobs, houses. etc. Don't get frustrated. Appreciate and celebrate with them and eventually they will be celebrating with you. The last thing you want is to be in your moment and your dear friends and family can't celebrate with you because they feel some type a way about you getting things accomplished before them. Everyone deserves their moment.
Watch those around you, you could be next simply means if those in your circle are growing you can't help but start to grow. You will all benefit from extraordinary things. Trust, believe and listen to your inner voice and you can accomplish anything you put your mind too. Don't give up. Your time is coming. Grow, live, and change the world. Keep growing and inspiring.
