What’s the idea of those who compete with you and you’re not competing? What’s the end goal for them?

I think some have this strong desire for competition, even when there is no competition to win.

I'm in fact one of them. I do it without realizing I'm doing it. Its part of who I am.

I even try to stop from myself from doing it and I always end up naturally end up trying to compete against someone or a group of people or against a machine.

It forces me to work harder and harder and to push my goals higher.

I think I have that competition gene that makes people want to compete against each other

@HumanEarth @HumanEarth Ah, I and understand that after reading your post. I get it. Being athletically gifted myself and very strong physically and mentally yet being dyslexic I understand. A state high school wrestling champion and successful Army career was driven by my inner desire to be the best for myself.

I thought of my competing with others in sports or on the battlefield as competition for sure and gaining rank. But in my personal life I just do what I love to do building wise hunting fishing agriculture wise and cross dressing as fun and not a competition.

I understand your statement

@HumanEarth That makes sense. I’m just curious as to what that is outside of getting things done in a productivity sense.

@HumanEarth I am 60 years old and work like you do and kick butt doing it.

PS: I leave my tits in the house as not to ruin or lose them either!
