I think that FEAR is the most compelling force in our lives. We are afraid of everything. Talk is cheap. Fear is real.

Interesting question, I would have to say that love is the thing that drives me the most. Pride, knowing that I have done what ever it may be to the very best of my ability too.
Fear of failure is there for everyone to a certain extent. If you understand that you are going to fail at certain things at certain times then you don't let it get to you especially as I said above if you have done the best you can. Some people though allow the fear of failure to drive them and this isn't good. I have seen it in people and they are not fun to be around.

This is a difficult question to answer.Although I am quite ambitious and competitive;my ability to give and receive love far out weigh revenge and hate.I learned many years ago that hate and revenge only make you a bitter person.It is when we let go of past bitterness and hate that we become happy loving people.We have all experienced hatred and the thirst for revenge.But it is through love and forgiveness that we find joy and happiness.
We all have a fear of failure; it is how we handle that fear that determines how happy and successful we are in life..
I hope I have answered your question.

Ambition and competitiveness would be mine. And yes, I don't want to disappoint my old man and let him know that I failed in something since I love him so.
I don't know about love for my part, since I don't claim to have ever been in love. But I do have someone I like, and when he stops replying for days at a stretch, I just bury my disappointment by going on Yahoo Answers and answer the questions. Technical and history-related questions do the best job at getting your mind off your own problems.

Personal survival above all, with sex a close second.
All the rest are determined by each person's individual personality, needs, wants, etc.
Many fear failure, but just as many fear success.

Hate and revenge. And I'm not even what it is exactly I hate or why I want revenge. Also, the hope someday I'll have sex.

Passion. I give 110% to the things I'm excited about. I put off the things that are tedious as long as possible.
