How to get rid of the envy of others?

Are you the target of envy? How to get rid of the envy they feel of you? Being envied and feeling the reflex of envy, which can be so harmful and generate bad situations in life, is due to the fact that you give more and more power to the other in relation to your own issues. Your life is your responsibility.

If you appropriate your personal power, the other cannot affect you.

This is just an illusion installed in the mind that can be fought if you use your power of discernment. But how to do it?
