Were you in a multi level marketing business years ago ?? You & I see to have read the same books & have the same analogies.

Do you know the story about crabs in a bucket..... ?
If you put one crab in a bucket, he will climb out & get away. If you put two or more, when one climbs up, the others will pull him back in.
I'm tired of being pulled back down.
