Have you ever at some point in your life felt that someone else was jealous of you or something you had accomplished? Have you ever wondered why? Many of us never really gave it any thought, but there is actually a terrible mentality that lurks around in the minds of many and has been passed down from generation to generation. That mentality - sometimes referred to as crabs in a barrel mentality - describes a way of thinking best described by the phrase of "if I can't have it, neither can you."

This book will explore the crabs in a barrel mentality and provide brief solutions of how one can overcome this dreadful mentality. This book will serve as a way to break the barrier on this condition within adults and prevent it from spreading to the youth.
