Most societies v alue being competitive. How does competitiveness affect individuals? Is it a positive or negative quality?

In most countries, competitiveness is considered a valuable characteristic. I believe that the effect on

individuals

is tangible but it depends deeply on a person’s individual psychology whether or not it is a positive personality trait. The main consequence of a competitive spirit

is to motivate.

holds true for a variety of situations across different stages of life. Starting at a young age, there is social reinforcement to do better than other students in academics and athletics from teachers, parents, and coaches.

or private life. The above-mentioned points imply competitiveness is a negative but

is only the case in specific contexts.

Individuals

exploiting competition in order to stockpile esteem are fundamentally insecure and may have trouble reorienting to value their personal opinion of themselves.

Conversely

, being competitive is an overwhelming positive for those with a strong sense of self-esteem who are merely exercising and expressing their capacity. The ideal, healthy competitor is not particularly concerned with the outward signs of their success but simply enjoys competing and winning as an end in itself. In conclusion, most are pushed to compete by social forces but

are expressing their natural inclinations. It is ultimately the responsibility of each person to turn competition into a positive.
