Stop Feeling Guilty | Trent Shelton

About this video

Shelton urges viewers not to feel guilty for their growth, happiness, or success, and to guard their hearts from bitterness—both their own and others’. He shares his personal fear that people around him change when he succeeds, arguing that others’ expectations and envy can poison relationships. Shelton teaches that comparing yourself to others and counting their blessings leads to misery, and encourages viewers to run their own race, pray for protection, and genuinely celebrate others’ wins.
