Competitive or Not?

i aint competitive 't all, ne'er 've been 'n 've no desire to be such. don't give a flip 'bout what others 're doin', though wish all well.

I'm not sure if this is considered competitive but I've always strived to be accurate when I was a data entry operator, not that I competed with anyone but since they all bragged about how fast they could type I simply tried to be as accurate as possible, I wasn't as fast as some of them so I went for accuracy. So, why do people compete about earnings, I find my earnings as a personal thing that I don't generally talk about.

I am not competitive about earnings here. I just want to make the most. I think I am a silently competitive person. I silently compare my performance in any given sphere but I am most likely to compete against myself.

I was when i was in my primary years . I compete with my classmate to get the highest honor . But for sports no.

i don't know if i missed some discussions regarding this, and i'm not sure if this is what you mean, but those discussions, responses, comments i've read sharing about their progress, both returning and new members, i didn't find them about competition or comparison. in fact i even asked for clarification on some and gave encouragements to others. to me it is a good sign that mylot is off to a good 'restart' and kept its reputation for regular automatic payment. it's also great to see that the newbies are doing well and their experience, so far, has been positive.

I try not to focus on earnings that much as it does have the tendency to be frustrating once the payments don't come in. I'm enjoying the interaction. In a sense I compete with my own performance and set goals of how many interactions, comments, responses I make as compared previously.

I'm not very expressive, so if someone knows I'm competing that would be me! And it depresses me out... making me disheartened. So better to focus on the things I feel excited about, like poking a friend!

Yes, I think with sports that I like. A lot of the stuff that pays me online, I get very competitive and groups and online people really rally me to do good. I am sure I'll get payout on myLot soon!

I don't try to be competitive here in mylot, as I know I will lose. It doesn't matter anyway, as I am here to have fun and interact, and as long as I do that I will earn. I have plenty of time to earn the rest of this month anyway, so I will just continue doing what I am doing.

I compete with my own performance and that way I know I will be doing my best.

I never have been competitive at 99% of times. The only 1% is when I am competing against my own self - For instance, when I left smoking (that is ancient now, in 1994), I had to compete against me. At work, there are times when I almost am done with and then redo most of it just because I feel, I could do better, if I tried the other way round. I never have a feeling of - okay, s/he is better than me and I too should catch up with him/her - I respect them for their individuality and I also respect me for mine. I know my limitations and if I have to be tough and play dirty, I know, I am better than them - but then as I say it is not my nature prove it to anyone.

I love healthy competitions. I hate jealous cut throat completions, We used to have so much of it in college which helped us get good grades.

I do not like to be competitive about earnings, this makes me stressed and for me, this is not the purpose to write and interact in this site.

No, I have never been competitive.

No, I am not a competitive person.

No, I'm not competitive.

A little when it come to work yes. But not to the point where I am ruthless!

Not with earnings and so, I go my own pace. But, I do like a challenge now and again and will take it on to prove I could do it.

@TexanTornado - I compete with myself. I am trying to win. The contest is to keep on breathing.

Yes. Competition brings out the best in us!
