I agree to an extend that competing with others is generally a good thing.
Competing with others is a good way to gauge your skill level.
For e.g. When youre competing with your friends in running, you will be able to know how far ahead or behind you are from them. However, if you chose not to compete with others, you are unable to acknowledge your current standing and may lose out to others because you are unaware of your weaknesses. Therefore, competing will help gauge whether or not you are performing well.
Competing with others also serves as a way to better yourself. Sometimes training by yourself is less efficient as you have no motivation. Whereas when you are competing with others, you will be able to set a goal of beating them and they will help to push you past your limits. As a result, you will be able to grow exponentially.
However i also acknowledge the cons of competing with others.
For example, some people may be unable to take a blow from having lost to others and feel depressed. As such, they might have a lack of motivation and give up completely on the hobby or sport they worked so hard on.

I agree with the view that competing against others is a goof thing. One benefit of competition is that it makes you identify your strengths and weaknesses. During a competition, you would meet people with various strengths and weaknesses therefore you can exchange ideas and learn from one another so that you can improve yourself. It also gives you a sense of accomplishment after competing. It improves your confidence  and gives motivation to work harder. For example, me and my teammates competed in the Singapore Youth Festival which encouraged bonding among teammates, motivated us to do better, and enabled us to learn the strengths from other choirs and used it to improve our own.

- it betters your own performance as competitiveness encourages healthy competition where you learn from your opponent's strength and weaknesses and in turn improve your own ability
- competitions and competing against others in general also provides a good benchmark for yourself to see how to fare compared to others and where you are on the path to master said skill
- when yoy lose against someone it also humbles you and reminds you not to be prideful as there is still lots of areas of improvement for yourself. it also helps to make yourself less complacent in your own skill level and realise the areas you can brush up on.
- competing against others also teaches you the value of sportsmanship which in important to have in your daily life and makes your core morals and values stronger

# data[].attributes.body
I agree as competing in friendly competition helps the opposings teams to learn from each other and further improve themselves by learning from the mistakes that they made during the competition. When competing with someone it allows you to stretch your limits by thinking of solutions to how to overcome certain difficulties that you face in the competition. Competing against others also allow you to forge new friendships and rivalries that help to drive each other forward and perform to the best of their abilities.

> pushes people to do their best by exposing them to potentially better than them opponent
> seeing someone better than you will motivate you to work harder and do better to "win" them
> enables them to test their limits with encouragement from teammates / opponents
> understand weaknesses and strive to improve
> learn and grow by observing methods/techniques/strategies employed by the opponent which you can then use at other times
>  friendly competition only goes wrong when one side is too easily offended / does not have sportsmanship
> if a person is too competitive than problems may be posed too : they might be too obsessed with winning that they forget that the most important thing is their improvement and progress

• we all have different strengths and weaknesses
•our improvement speeds all varies from one another; one person may put in as much effort as the other but does not improve as much as the other
• if we compete against one another and win , we may get complacent and stop working hard
• if we compete against another and lose despite putting in so much effort , we may get discouraged and stop trying
Example in a test,  previously person A scored 68 while u scored 64. you want to beat person A. you work hard but in the next test, person A scored 77 while u scored 72.

• even though you lose, you still made an improvement
• however if we compete against others, we may be blinded by our own feelings of discouragement and fail to see the improvements you’ve made
• so we should compete against ourselves
• by seeing the improvements we made, we will be encouraged to continue to work hard

# data[].attributes.body
I agree that it’s a good thing
- it makes us work harder when we have a competitor.
- instil competitiveness
- allows us to gauge our own ability when we have a stronger opponent
- learn from opponent on how to improve on ourself to achieve better result
- Help us in wanting to achieve a higher goal in the competition
- Help us push ourselves beyond our limit to achieve better results
I disagree that it is a good thing
- often make people neglect the meaning of a competition that they don’t need to win to be a winner

# data[].attributes.body
competition is paramount in order for one to thrive
•allows us to understand and gauge how ahead or behind we are in what we do
-if we do not compete against each other, we would never know if we are doing a good job or if we need more improvement. thus , competition  promotes growth and learning

# data[].attributes.body
i agree that competing with others is a good thing because when we do so, it is an opportunity for learning and self reflection. It is not very often that we self evaluate and I think by competing against someone, we are able to clearly see our level of ability and from there on identify out strengths and weaknesses. When we compete against better opponents, we can learn from them and takeaway good points. For me, i have been to many scrabble competitions and through competing against others, I am able to learn new words from them and improve my vocabulary and at the same time, train my critical thinking skills in game.

# data[].attributes.body
competing with people created this need for us to constantly improve ourselves. although it is a good thing, it should be done for the sake of ourselves and not for winning a competition. when trying to make ourselves better , it should be for our own good and not anyone else’s. competing against people also creates a toxic environment around us. this is because we see people around us as opponents and enemies. personally, i have lost a few friends due to competitions. there are instances where i won it and this causes them to be unhappy with me i had stole their "thunder"

# data[].attributes.body
yes i do agree as it motivates ourselves to improve.
by comparing ourselves to others, we may be spurred on to become more determined to improve ourselves or to defeat them. also it allows us to reflect on our own skills and find areas that we can improve on especially when there is someone who could be better at a certain aspect of the sport or hobby.

disagree
may give too much stress, mental breakdown
may face humiliation by others if they lose

# data[].attributes.body
agree
- competing would require one to put in their best efforts and strive for excellence
-allows one to be aware of personal progress ( losing means there are many things to work on while winning means you have done well and continue to uphold the same standards
-competing will let u learn new things from your competitor ( like learning from their mistakes anf not making the same ones , or new skills they used)

# data[].attributes.body

>feel motivated to do better

# data[].attributes.body
Competing with other is a good thing as you get the drive and motivation to do better than your opponents. Without competition, it would be hard to be motivated to improve and it would also be hard to gauge where your standards are at.

Howeever, if there are too much competion, things may get toxic between teamates as there will be blaming. Losing will also make one sad 😢

Do not agree
-it is importabt to work with others
-many projects/opportunities in future that require people to work together
-by working with others, you can learn from them too and pick up good traits
-for example,i had a science project and we had to build a solar oven but we did not anticipate that it will rain. Luckily our leader made us prepare a week beforehand and this allowed us have another chance to do it.
-however i do axknowledge thta friendly competition is important
-boosts ones efficiency and make them want to work harder to be better as they want to win against others

Good as it brings out a competitive spirit to do the very best against an opponent.
However,it may also bring in negative feelings such as jealousy and envy when one does better than the other so it is important to keep a healthy rivalry with others but try not to have hard feelings

- will push both sides to do better

I would not enjoy taking part in a race like the one in the video as I am not a very sporty person and enjoy more indoor activities. I dislike very competitive sports and would prefer to watch than actually involve myself in the competition. Althoigh I do enjoy a mini game of badminton sometimes, I mostly prefer to stay at home and relax.

I would enjoy taking part in a race like this because i would be able to spend my time more meaningfully especially during holiday breaks. Dragon boating is also a form of exercise which can help me keep fit while also entertained.

I would most likely be able to release stress and it would also be fun to try out or take up another hobby besides my CCA. I had experience dragon boating before in Secondary 2 Camp with my classmates and it was fun as I could experience something different and at the same time feel closer to my classmates
