HOW TO RECOGNIZE A CRAB

"If I can't have it, neither can you"

                    It may be difficult to instantly know if someone has the crab mentality.  However, it's easy to spot a crab by the way
                       they live and treat others. All you have to do is look closely. Here are five ways to tell if someone has crab mentality:

1. They will never admit that they have
     the crab mentality. 
     They are too proud to recognize that the
     problem is with them, not others.
     
2. They think too highly of themselves and treat
      others as inferior beings. 
      When they achieve something , whether big or
      small, they brag about it to everyone. They only
      see the good things in themselves,  but only see
      the failure of others.

3. They panic when they see that people 
      around them are successful and they 
       aren't. 
       They feel insecure when they see others 
       progressing and surpassing them. That’s 
       when they'll do anything to spoil        
       celebrations over others' success.

4. They aren't compassionate and blame
      you for your failures
     It's hard to deal with difficult situations
     when you're experiencing failure. It's
      even harder when people with crab
      mentality blame you for not succeeded
      as you had hoped. Instead of helping
      build you back up, they break you down
      even more.
   
 4. They spend more time talking  bad
        about people because they see them as
        competitors.
        Instead of thinking about solutions that
        benefit society, they spend most of their
       time ensuring that nobody else can
       become better than them.
