Definition: The word "anticompetitive" refers to a behavior where an individual or organization is unwilling or unable to compete with others in their field. It describes the mindset that encourages avoidance of competition, even when it comes from within oneself or another. Examples include fear of failure, complacency, or even a lack of effort towards improving one's performance. The word does not inherently mean a positive outcome but rather reflects an attitude that impedes growth and development.
