The crab mentality

If you put a crab in a bucket alone, it will climb out, but if you put a bunch of crabs in a bucket, they will pull back any crab who tries to escape.

Crab mentality in humans is a form of mental manipulation. It’s a destructive mindset where people pull others down to prevent them from succeeding. Instead of supporting and encouraging each other, they engage in envy and competition.
People around you can be very manipulative in persuading you not to take a chance on yourself. They exist everywhere – at work or amongst family and friends.

Your journey is never a betrayal to anyone no matter what you achieve. Know the crabs in your bucket. Stay alert, stay focused!
