Test: How Competitive Are You?

You know those people who seem to get ahead all the time? The type of people who have things and experiences you only wish you had? It’s their natural competitiveness and ambition that empower them to do great things and propel them forward. They don’t seem to have problems staying motivated and are always so passionate about what they do; they seem so alive.

The test below is designed to measure how competitive you are. Before we begin, keep in mind that there is healthy and unhealthy competition. Unhealthy competition is the kind that stems from deep-rooted insecurity or even pathology, such as narcissism and sociopathy. It poisons your relationships at work and at home, and you fail even when you succeed because you are always anxious. On the other hand, healthy competition is a powerful motivator that helps you get ahead and contribute more. So, scoring very high on this test isn’t necessarily good and may mean you need to slow down and relax a little.
