My default
I had to give this thought. I'd like to think of myself as having a compromise default but, if I'm to be honest (and I really dislike lying so I guess there isn't an alternative) I have to say that my default is to "on the offensive...fight fire with fire", etc. I definitely have a competitive default. I was a good debater and trial lawyer because I wanted to win. Fortunately, I'm trainable and I learned how to move away from default. It took a lot of effort though I'm glad I figured it out. LIfe is quieter and my karma is better.
