How do I curb an overly competitive mindset?

I find myself feeling jealous of alot of people's achievements when I know I should be happy for them. And I don't understand why I feel like this to the point that I can feel it physically. It gets very toxic that I undermine my own achievements and wish to be as great as they are even when I've not done enough to even deserve recognition. I understand the amount of hardwork and dedication for them to reach to that point but even with all the logical explanations, I still feel this quiet anger and envy inside of me.

I want to be a better person. Feel free to leave down some advice, thanks.
Believe it or not everyone gets jelouse of one another... Even if they dont admit it.. But In order to stop this feeling almost entirely, you must work harder than anyone you know. You must be better than anyone you know..Thats how i never feel jelouse because im stronger... Im smarter... Im better!... I make it so that nobody can catch up to me up here. Ofcourse acting this way will actually make people jelouse of you.. And a bit of [WARNING] youre friends might stop hanging out with you if you act this way. Im very aware Of this but still do it anyway because its fun amd i wont chamge for anyome, even if i lose friends. Its funny ill be sad about it for a little but still laugh at what made them mad at me strangely enough. I just see it as theyre not strong enough to be my friend. And ill forget about it because only weak people grieve. i mostly want people to bow to me... But Most people just want to be liked. Im just different i want to be the best but Of course you dont have to take it as far as i do. Just being kind can take you pretty far. Probably much farther.

Jealousy is a natural feeling. Part of being human. Truth is it is difficult to feel inferior all the time, but those are societal standards, they don’t have to be yours for yourself.

You don’t really need to be happy for them, just be happy for yourself.
