Muditā is on of the four Divine Abodes (Brahma-vihāra), together with loving kindness, compassion and equanimity.

Sympathetic Joy is the quality of rejoicing and feeling happy in other beings success.

It's the very opposite of envy and jealousy.

Ajahn suggests a similar approach as in developing mettā: We imagine someone we really like anyhow, and then remember some wholesome achievement they accomplished.

"May you enjoy all your success!" or similar.

We continue till we can really feel the corresponding emotion.
