Crabs donāt sell real estate, but theyāll try to stop you š§
Ever seen a bucket of crabs? You donāt need a lid because the crabs will do all the work themselves, grabbing, pulling, making sure no one escapes.
Funny how that same thing happens in real estate.
The crab mentality shows up in ways you wouldnāt expect. Itās the coworker who downplays your wins. The peers who dismiss your big goals. The ones who donāt try to grow, but will go out of their way to make sure you donāt either. They wonāt say it outright, but their actions make it clear: If Iām stuck, you should be too.
This isnāt just negativity, itās a mindset. And if you let it, itāll keep you in the same place year after year.
So how do you get out? You focus on self-improvement. Set goals. Take action. Jealousy and resentment wonāt close deals, discipline will. Growth will. Surrounding yourself with the right people will.
Some will try to pull you back the moment you start moving up. Let them. Just donāt stop climbing.
