I was competitive because my self-image was wrapped up in being the best in an unhealthy way. Don't cultivate that.
You don't need to be more competitive. You do need to value yourself well enough that you expect (and insist on) fair treatment for yourself - that you also deserve success, or at least that you deserve recognition and reward for the success that you helped cause.
