Are you competitive?

[IThinkIamFeelingit]

I have met a lot of people in this lifetime that think that being competitive is wrong...I do not..if I am going to do something that has a competitive nature about it, I am going to do my best and try to win..that is the way that I have always been...if I lose, I am not a poor sport, I will just want to do it again till I win. Mind you, I am not competitive about everything..it does not control my life, which I have seen it do to some...Remember that seinfeld episode with the old men lifting the tv's. Hilarious..I am not like them..but I do believe that 2nd place is the first loser. LOL:jointsmile:

I'm definitely competitive. I'm competitive when it comes to games and sports. I was very competitive when I was younger and participated in athletics of all sorts. I'm also very competitive with grades. I'm even competitive with myself. Always trying to beat arbitrary records I set for myself, whether it's my endurance time on the treadmill at the gym or how quickly and efficiently I can clean the living room.

I'm far less competitive about material stuff like cars or houses or clothes or money. That stuff doesn't matter, although I know an awful lot of people who believe it does.

Competition is not wrong. I think a certain degree of it is healthy. I can also lose graciously, too.

There's nothing healthy or unhealthy about it. It is merely a lifestyle. I am not competitive.

depends on what it is... but for the most part, yes.

I am very competitive in life in general i know what i want and im going for it. Sports the same. With people No... i dont compare myself to others. i just try to do my own thing and im trying to make it to the top.. get me? lol

[hippy lettuce]

Depends on what it is I'm doing. In general am pretty competitive...but sometimes i just get pissed off, specially if the person who beats me starts rubbing it in and talking shit, then i just get stressed out

I'm competitive when it comes to sports or anything physical. I still have scars on my legs from high school lacrosse... I was wayy to intense about it! I go to the gym for two hours every day, and I always find myself looking at the people on the machines around me, seeing how long they'd been on and how high their resistance was set... Every time someone gets off a machine after being on for a shorter time than me, I have this little smug inner "haha I win" feeling going on....

But yeah, other than physically, I'm not competitive at all. I honestly don't care if someone has more money, or gets a better grade on a term paper, or anything like that. In situations like that, I tend to challenge myself, screw competing with other people.

LOL I will give you a story of how competetive I am. One time when I was in high school I was trying to beat the swim team captain who was a senior at the time. I was a freshman, and we were having this competetion in the pool on how far you could swim underwater while holding your breath. Well he had gone the farthest which was about 2 and a half lengths of 25 yard standard natatorium pool. Well when I went I wanted to beat him so bad that I went 3 frieking lengths underwater but I had pushed myself too hard and passed out and came floating up to water motionless. Everyone on the team pulled me out of the water and I regained conciousness like 2 minutes later.. and then they said hey you won ! LOL
