In this contemporary era which features high pressure and fierce competitions, owning core competitiveness in one specific domain is a powerful tool on modern people’s way to success, as a result of which, it is not uncommon to see that an increasing number of individuals spare no effort and energy to achieve this goal.

There is no doubt that the vital role that the superior competitive capability plays in the success of individuals is widely accepted. First and foremost, such a character serves as an essential means of motivation to push people to work harder and acquire more skills, hence contributing to a more prosperous career path since when people are aware of the significance of keeping making progress and striving to be the first, they tend to be more productive. It is competitiveness that enables individuals to equip with self-motivation and self-discipline that are deemed as indispensable factors for overcoming barriers as well as resisting temptation when devoting to work or studies. Additionally, people with stronger competitive ability are more likely to have courage and persistence to challenge tasks which cannot be completed by ordinary people，in other words, they are more capable to break down the routine as well as to fight for what they believe in. Unfortunately, people who lose this feature are hardly to pursue their goals or make themselves come out on the top.　Vicious competition, however, is often thought to be connected with the greed or an addiction to power. In that case, those people easily slip out of control and head for crime. What’s worse, such a conduct would have an adverse effect on the interpersonal relationship, making people more selfish and self-centered who would turn a blind eye to people around them. For instance, when children are frequently infused the importance of competing with peers, there is a greater possibility that they would refuse to share information, give a helping hand or even adopt a hostile attitude towards others who are regarded as a potential competitor, which is definitely in contradiction with teamwork highly promoted in modern society.

In a nutshell, competitive ability is one of the most crucial characteristics for human beings, which gives us goals and pushes us to lead a life filled with satisfaction and glory. However, it is worth mentioning that the excessive pursuit of this quality can trigger a series of side effects on the moral values as well as human relations.
