Have you ever heard the crab in the bucket parable?
Once upon a time, a man was walking on a beach ๐Ÿ– when he came upon a fisherman ๐ŸŽฃ. As he got closer he saw the fisherman had a bucket full of crabs ๐Ÿฆ€. The crabs were climbing on each other and the bucket had no lid.
The mans asked the fisherman if he was worried the crabs would escape.
The fisherman said ๐™ฃ๐™ค, because if only ๐™ค๐™ฃ๐™š crab was in the bucket it could easily climb out.
But because the bucket was ๐™›๐™ช๐™ก๐™ก of crabs, if one crab tried to crawl out, the ๐™ง๐™š๐™จ๐™ฉ ๐™ฌ๐™ค๐™ช๐™ก๐™™ ๐™ฅ๐™ช๐™ก๐™ก ๐™ž๐™ฉ ๐™—๐™–๐™˜๐™  ๐™™๐™ค๐™ฌ๐™ฃ.
This has become known as ๐˜พ๐™ง๐™–๐™— ๐™๐™๐™š๐™ค๐™ง๐™ฎ. And unfortunately, it happens with groups of people too.
Have you tried to do something that is brave and different, and felt unsupported and sometimes ridiculed for your courage? Do you feel like sometimes you have people in your life that want to pull you back down?
Here's what I've done that has helped so much. I surround myself with people who have a growth mindset. Without a doubt the best way to succeed is in a community of people that lift each other up not tear each other down.
So go find those people! And drop a crab ๐Ÿฆ€ in the comments of youโ€™re ready to climb out ๐™–๐™ฃ๐™™ ๐™ข๐™–๐™ ๐™š ๐™จ๐™ค๐™ข๐™š ๐™ข๐™–๐™œ๐™ž๐™˜. I'm rooting for you!
