Always trying Quote by Stephen Covey
“People with a scarcity mentality think there is only so much in the world to go around. It's as if they see life as a pie. When another person gets a big piece, then they get less. Such people are always trying to get even, to pull others down to their level so they can get an equal or even bigger piece of the pie.”
About This Quote
A scarcity mindset treats resources as limited, causing envy and competition, while a abundance mindset sees plenty for all.
In simple terms: Seeing life as a limited pie leads to rivalry.
Adopt an abundance outlook.
