Competition serves as a catalyst for personal growth and social development, pushing individuals to achieve more in various fields. It is driven by needs ranging from survival to enjoyment. As children mature, they enter increasingly competitive environments, navigating personal and social challenges shaped by needs for belonging and success. While it can lead to frustration and defeat, supporting adolescents in learning how to compete is crucial, as it prepares them for real-world challenges and helps them cultivate resilience, ambition, and performance improvement.
Competition is the process of trying to mentally or physically or socially better one's own performance or the performance of others.
Competition takes energy and effort, and it can risk frustration, failure, or defeat.
By adolescence, young people are increasingly socially, athletically, and academically contesting with others to make their way.
Much caring and care-taking are simply given. As social independence grows, the young person must take more care of themselves.
