jealousy is simply blocked desire. If you could flip that jealousy into inspiration, the block would disappear. If you could celebrate jealousy as a sign of your next big step in life, it immediately lifts the burden of frustration and insecurity you feel, and gets you moving forward with a high five attitude again.

One minute, it’s there. . . The next, it’s gone.
And here’s the sad truth: You and I, we can’t stop the ice cube from melting. The only thing we can do is make the most of the time that we have with the people that we love while we have it

You need to hear this loud and clear: No one is coming. It is up to you. It has always been and will always be up to you. You may never feel inspired or clearheaded enough to seize a moment, but you have to force yourself to do it even if you don’t want to. Nothing is changing unless you make it change.

Saying “let them” is just the first half of the equation.
The second half, “let me” – the source of your power is not in managing other people, it’s in managing your response.
“Let me” is tapping into that power by taking responsibility for what you do, think or say next.
“Let me” is the part where you realize that you are in control of what happens next.
“Let me” is the power move.

We make the mistake of believing that because our problems are big or because our dreams are so big that somehow the solution to achieving those dreams or to solving those problems must be enormous too; when in truth is the opposite. The larger the problem, the smaller the solution. The bigger dream, the smaller the actions are that you need to start taking.

Right now you have a tendency to live in a low mental and emotional state—thanks to your past. That’s why you have low confidence, low self-esteem, and low levels of motivation. The High 5 Habit flips this on its head and helps you restore yourself back to the higher mental and emotional state that you were designed for—a state that inspires you to take action. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. You cannot think your way to a new life. You must act your way there, one high five at a time. Taking consistent action toward change is not always easy, but you can do it.

Whoever or whatever is making you jealous, GOOD. Their success and their wins don’t shrink your chances of creating what you want. They expand it. Let Them lead the way. Flip your jealousy to inspiration. See what’s possible through their example. The people you compare yourself to act as mirrors, reflecting back bigger possibilities—or in Molly’s case, the formula and the work she was avoiding. And that’s what I said to Molly.

We all love to think of excuses for why people who have what we want are somehow different from us: They were born into money. They are more attractive. Their life has been easier. They've gotten lucky.
I'm sorry to break it to you, but that is a cop-out. There is no difference between you and the people you see achieving extraordinary things. They aren't special. But there's one thing for sure they've figured out: They don't let the world around them derail their dreams. They've learned to navigate the sky, to accept the weather as it comes, and to keep moving toward their goals no matter what. At some point they got sick and tired of worrying about what everybody else thought and just forced themselves to get to work.
They are laser focused on waking up every day and proving, over and over through their actions, that they are worthy and deserving of the vision they have for their life.
Everyday that you allow your fear of somebody else's opinion, stress over friendships, or concern about how someone will react to prevent you from making the phone call, filling out the application, working on the business plan, starting the diet, or putting in the effort, you'r holding yourself back. You're robbing yourself of your potential. You're standing while life moves on around you.

Other people show you what's possible. When you see comparison as a teacher, you'll realize other people aren't taking anything form you: they are giving something to you. Other people have this beautiful capacity to show you pieces of your future that you cannot fully see for yourself yet. They show you the possibilities that you didn't realize existed or told yourself you are incapable of achieving.
Whoever or whatever is making you jealous, GOOD. Their success and wins don't shrink your chances of creating what you want. They expand it. Let them lead the way.

The fact is, every human being is dealt a different hand in life and you can't control the cards that someone else is holding. The more time you spend staring at someone else, the more you miss the entire point of the gam.
In life, you're not playing against anyone. You're playing with them. Someone will always have better cards than yours.
And while you've been busy comparing yourself to everyone else, you've missed one of the greatest secrets in life: Other people teach you how to be a better player, and that's how you win.

You’ve spent enough time waiting for others to give you what you crave—whether it’s love, acceptance, or approval. But the truth is, everything you’re looking for starts with you. The Let Them Theory is more than just a tool for navigating relationships with others; it’s a guide for how to treat yourself with the love, respect, and kindness you deserve. Let Them be who they are. But more importantly, let yourself be who you truly are. Let Me prioritize my own happiness. Let Me pursue my dreams with passion. Let Me set boundaries that protect my peace. Let Me choose relationships that uplift and inspire me. Let Me love myself enough to walk away when it no longer works. This isn’t about waiting for the right partner, the right friend, or the right opportunity to come along. It’s about recognizing that you are the source of your own happiness, your own fulfillment, and your own joy. When you truly embrace that, everything else falls into place.
