Would you consider yourself a competitive type of person? or does winning not matter too much to you and you are just happy with what you have/you get?

View Full Version : Competitive? Angel_Eyes 06-05-08, 12:22 PM Would you consider yourself a competitive type of person? or does winning not matter too much to you and you are just happy with what you have/you get? Thalia 06-05-08, 12:37 PM I'm very competitive.. and if I can't do it the first time, I won't get pissed off or anything.. I'll just try again and again and again. Just yesterday I was trying to explain what a "bad loser" and what "being a sport" meant to my oldest. I don't think I'm a sad loser.. I can take losing pretty well, especially if I get another chance later on. pixie girl 06-05-08, 12:53 PM I guess I'm competitive with myself? Like, if I did fairly well on something for the first time, I'll definitely do a better job on it the next. Riv 06-05-08, 12:53 PM in my speciality things im competitive, but otherwise its ok. Angel_Eyes 06-05-08, 12:58 PM I'm probably the most competitive woman in oman:) let's just say that. Riv 06-05-08, 12:59 PM shall we test dat? Angel_Eyes 06-05-08, 01:01 PM ^be my guest :angel: Riv 06-05-08, 01:03 PM alright den, gona hit u by surprise later Angel_Eyes 06-05-08, 01:06 PM ^go ahead.:angel: Storm 06-05-08, 01:19 PM I'm very competitive.. and if I can't do it the first time, I won't get pissed off or anything.. I'll just try again and again and again. Same here :) I really can't leave things that I really want to work go on with nothing, so I just keep trying and trying and trying ... even if it takes me years :) HRM 06-05-08, 05:18 PM oh I'm so laid back and I'm so not bothered, most of the time I'm happy with what i have. TripleTee 06-05-08, 05:19 PM Hate competitions to be honest. but as long's i reach my goal i don't care whether I win or lose. (might even be happy I lost if that made me reach it better) but there's one thing I know I'm not fond of... and that's losing in an argument. The only time I'll accept losing in that is if my opponent was so reasonable that s/he gave me no point unexplained to argue otherwise, then I'll volunteeringly raise the white flag :XD: other than that... I don't mind losing in general to a certain extent...however, I don't like losing too much... cuz then I'll start doubting myself. also one thing i don't like losing in is if a person or someone actually believed in me. I'd hate to disappoint them. regarding competitions as a whole... does that competition have a lot depending on it?... is it just a mere game?... my ambitions would then differ and ofcourse how seriously I take it as well... which is rarely :XD:. BrAiKi 06-05-08, 05:28 PM depends on what I'm competing for! If it's something I'm really interested in, a task, hell yeah I'm very competitive! And for sure I'll be very happy to get it, the fruit of my hard work! If it's someone I care about, I'd be competitive only if I'm not put as an option. Otherwise I'm the worst quitter ;) NaBHaN 06-05-08, 05:32 PM I'm very competitive and I really encourage people to compete with each other, I find that it brings out the best in people and pushes them to their limits (in a positive way). Lym 06-05-08, 05:48 PM It depends on what. If it's something important to me, then I am very competitive. However, a lot of the time, I am not bothered. I would rather invest my energy doing something I care about or nothing at all :rolleyes: Endure Whisper 06-05-08, 05:55 PM I am not competitive. I hardly bother about my level among others.. I care about what I do, how well I do it and that's fair enough for me. I wouldn't try to be "better" than other people. toxic_honey 06-05-08, 07:26 PM if its something means something to me ya i am if its something wont make a change no am not NiGhTFaCe 06-05-08, 07:36 PM I give it a shot. But, I wouldn't care that much if I lose. Threadlike 06-05-08, 07:53 PM I'm content...I don't aim high so when I get low I'm not very upset. You shoot for the moon, when you fall, you're stuck in a vacuum with no gravity and looking for a space ship to carry you home :hyper: nosa 06-05-08, 11:28 PM so not competitive.. im for the fun n joy more then the win, its good to be ahead of other, but its never a goal for me i think competitiveness is to much stress n thinking n i so dont need that! toxic_honey 07-05-08, 12:00 AM ^^^ girl you was in the first year in schoool! u sucked that time LOL Pygmalion 07-05-08, 03:18 AM I don’t know if I am competitive but I used to compete with my peers until very recently, especially when it comes to school…I must have some rivals competing over school performance and grades! I would calculate my target GPA every semester in order to keep my place or to takeover another rival’s place… When I grew older…I laughed at myself…life tastes the same or in some circumstances it tastes better being reasonably laid-back… when I look in retrospect, I think I missed out on so many things because I kept myself busy with one thing only… The best thing is to measure your performance with your performance in the past not with others’ performance… competing with others in your circle only guarantees local competitiveness, competing with yourself is more helpful towards building your confidence , way less stressful and is more constructive, I think! sameerb1 07-05-08, 05:06 PM Would you consider yourself a competitive type of person? or does winning not matter too much to you and you are just happy with what you have/you get? i am competitive and am all about winning Angel_Eyes 08-05-08, 01:28 AM those who said that that they are competitive, is a clear indication that they will be very successful in life. :) Nella 08-05-08, 02:18 AM only when i really want something. then and only then i become competitive. Libellula 14-05-08, 11:26 PM I'm not. I used to be, but I stopped caring at some point. Rossonero 15-05-08, 01:09 AM Yes, I am competitive but not when it comes to academic stuff. dam3t-malak 15-05-08, 08:10 AM I guess it depends on the thing i am competing for, if it was something that i have to finish then yes i am competitive, if its something else then i dont think i am competitive. Markov 15-05-08, 08:16 AM I'm probably the most competitive woman in oman:) Prove it! In general, women are more competitive than men, but most of them dont know that, and we men dont (and shouldn't) tell them Angel_Eyes 15-05-08, 11:18 AM ^you have no idea:) Superbia 23-05-08, 05:14 PM I strive to get what I want. Therefore, yes I do consider myself a competitive person. |
