What is Crab Mentality?
Crab mentality describes a way of thinking,best described by the phrase "if I can't have it, neither can you." The metaphor refers to a pot of crabs in which one tries to escape over the side, but is relentlessly pulled down by the others in the pot.
Most of us Filipinos have this kind of attitude. Whenever we see someone improving, someone who strives to be a better person, or someone is about to reach his goal we try to pull them down or distract them in order to fail. Is it jealousy? If not then what is it? If we don't want to be successful one can't we just allow someone who strive to be a better person. People wake up! Think it's time for us to change,if not now then when? When all of us are suffering from failure?
I'm sure you also feel the difficulties we're experiencing right now,Aahmm, i am not trying to say that i blame you from what's happening now, my point is can we change that attitude? Can we erase that from our vocanbulary and instead be a responsible one. You know it feels good when you see someone become successful from all his hardworks, inspiring,isn't it?
Lastly i believe that we are born to succeed so let's start achieving those dreams Now.
