• I might find that I have a habit of being jealous and comparing myself with other people and riveting my attention on how much somebody else is accomplishing or doing, or how much better they are at such and such.

Then, rather than staying caught in the content, I'll bring my attention into my body and open to the immediate feelings that are there.
