=== Achievement mindset vs. competitive mindset ===
''See also:'' [[Achievement orientation]]
According to Dr. Desley Lodwick GAICD:
{{Cquote|It is critical to differentiate between a competitive mindset and an [[Achievement orientation|achievement mindset]]. The former is externally [[motivation|motivated]], viewing success as a zero-sum game in which one person's gain is another person's loss. The achievement mindset, on the other hand, is driven by internal motivation, focusing on personal goals and growth rather than the need to outperform others.
People frequently misunderstand what competitive thinking is. It is not the same as what we call competition in sports. Instead, it is about how we construct our identities and what motivates our behaviour. It's the difference between comparing yourself to others in order to feel good about yourself and instead having a "personal best" mindset regardless of how others are performing.
A competitive mindset is characterised by associating self-worth with winning, a need for external validation, aggressive tendencies, and a pervasive fear of failure.<ref>[https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/competitive-thinking-its-all-your-head-dr-desley-lodwick-gaicd-0e9mc#:~:text=Competitive%20vs%20Achievement%20Mindset&text=The%20former%20is%20externally%20motivated,the%20need%20to%20outperform%20others.
