Seeking Attention?

It often occurs to me, 'What does it feels like to get all the attention that was once focused on me, slowly drifting away and being focused on someone else instead?'

How would that actually make you feel?

Well, I experienced a tiny bit of it a few days ago. Being guided by my mentor from scratch tends to make me depend on him for almost every thing. I get the attention from my mentor regarding my business and how I can make my things better.

But it felt a little bit different when the attention was thrown to another person  who was new and needed my mentor's guidance. It felt like I was ignored and not needed in their conversation. And... the attention to me was reduced.

So... what do I do? Do I throw tantrums like a kid? Or do I do all it takes to get back the attention which I've lost for just... a few minutes ago?

You see, even my above questions doesn't make any sense. That's what I got out of doing SIEP continuously - that my thoughts makes no sense at all!

*A quick one on SIEP. In any situation, whether good or bad, SIEP should be practiced.

S - Accept the situation with the understanding that Nature is trying to teach us something

I - Asking, 'What am I supposed to learn from this?', humbly

E - Emotions would be calmer as lessons matter more than anything else

P - Instead of looking at other people's mistake, you would rather want to correct yourself

After doing SIEP, I did what I could do best at that moment. Being happy that another person is having the chance to grow as how I was given the chance to grow before (and still am growing).

It also reminded me of the Law of Energy Returns Back To Source from The Seven Basic Laws Of Nature book that speaks about 'what goes around comes around'.

And though it has only been a few days, I can already see a lot of changes from the person through the guidance of my mentor. With all this happening, how can I even think about jealously and wanting attention.

Instead, I'd rather repeat my goals and continue with my work while feeling happy that there's someone else who's also growing in terms of Spirit, Intellect, Emotion and Physical.
