What is the difference between being competitive and being overly aggressive?

Being competitive is a natural instinct in each and every one of us. It is what drives us to try to perform better than our peers and friends, and makes our society more and more competitive. This is natural. On the other hand, being overly aggressive is taking this too far. Being overly aggressive is frowned upon by our society, and includes hurting, threatening, and in general, not being nice.

Being competitive is focusing on winning amongs contemporaries; being aggressive suggests forceful engagement
