Competition

Before our class on Friday I thought that competition was bad from reading Of Commonwealth, but during Friday's class my opinion shifted. I absolutely agree with Caroline and Katie when stated that competition shouldn't be looked down upon. Competition appears around everything including academics, athletics, politics, and even social lives. Competition drives people to perform to their fullest potential, and work to improve in whichever area it's focussed on. Of corse on occasion it can become out of hand, create hatred and jealousy towards one another, and only result for the worse, but even when such happens it still drives people to improve. From what I've learned about competition throughout the past few days I've realized that along the way poor things may occur, but in the end it only results in improvement.
