desires that battle with in you

James 4:1-3
what causess fights and quarrels among you? don't they come from your desires that battle with in you?
2 you desire but do not have so you kill. you covet but you can not get what you want so you quarrel and fight. you do not have because you do not ask God
3 when you ask you do not recieve because you ask with wrong motives that you may spend what you get on your pleasures

If you envy that which another has compliment them then seek your own out. Ask them where they got it how they got it... research it test it out to see if it really fits you then pursue that want or need. as it is said anger leads to trouble as does envy leading to trouble. You feel resentment towards the other who has what you want for the exact reason James 4:1 describes. Reflect what is the battle I am fighting with in? Why am I envious of this person? Why don't I have my own? (random rant response)
