Competition

People who are especially talented in the Competition theme measure their progress against the performance of others. They strive to win first place and revel in contests.

Driven by your talents, you consistently aim to turn in the prize-winning performance. A second- or third- place finish can send you into an emotional tailspin. Your ability to pull out of it depends on your other talents. By nature, you want many individuals to follow you. You hope they automatically regard you as the person in charge. After your results are compared to the outcomes of others, you want it to be clear to them that you are the very best. This probably is reason enough for them to give you their full allegiance.

Chances are good that you simply cannot have too much information. It is impossible. Like a miner searches for gold day after day, you continually collect new bits of knowledge. Depending on your other talents, you can delve into one or two interesting topics, or you can opt to know a little about a wide range of subjects. Your longing for knowledge is unlikely to be satisfied until you are recognized by others as the ultimate expert in a field or the grand champion of trivia. Because of your strengths, you yearn to get ahead. You strive to acquire many of the status symbols and special privileges that come with rank, title, or position. Instinctively, you act like a rival when you are pitted against others and only one person can be declared the very best at something. Your deep-seated desire to finish in first place probably drives many of your choices and explains much of your behavior.
