Every day you compete.

Winning first place is your goal in any contest that you feel is worth your time. If there is no one to compete against, you compete against yourself to do more or accomplish a goal faster or better. You can be competing against someone else even when that person doesn’t know it.

Because you hate to lose, you might get angry, upset, or even cry. It does not matter if others think the contest is important. If you are doing it, you want to be number one. Others look to you for the motivation to win.

“If you have Competing in your Strengths Explorer themes, you see many things in life as a game, and you feel great joy when you win. You truly hate to lose because you are always striving for first place.”
